Short Biography

I am a postdoc at Bocconi University hosted by Giulio Malavolta. Previously, I was a postdoc at the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy, hosted by Giulio Malavolta, and a postdoc at Johns Hopkins University, hosted by Abhishek Jain. I received my PhD from Tecnico Lisbon in 2022. I was supervised by Paulo Mateus and Nico Döttling.
