Currently, I am a final-year PhD student in Mathematics at the University of Glasgow (UK). I am part of the Integrable Systems and Mathematical Physics (ISMP) group and have been working under the supervision of Prof. Ian A.B. Strachan. I am currently on the job market, looking for PostDoctoral positions starting from Autumn 2026.
Starting from December 2025, I will be holding a six-month Teaching Assistant (TA) part-time position at the University of Glasgow.
Previously, I completed my Master's Degree in Theoretical Physics at the University of Milan (Italy) in 2022.
