About me
I defended my PhD thesis on 10 September 2026 at the Department of Mathematics at ETH Zurich, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Dylan Possamaï. From 1 October 2026, I will be a Chapman Fellow in the Mathematical Finance Section at Imperial College London.
My research interests include principal–agent problems, stochastic control, mean-field game theory, backward stochastic differential equations, and their applications.
