I am a postdoctoral researcher in Mathematics. In 2026 I was a Research Associate at Cardiff University, in the Geometry, Algebra, Mathematical Physics and Topology (GAPT) research group.
I did my PhD at Cardiff under the supervision of Ulrich Pennig. Earlier, I got my Master's degree at La Sapienza Università di Roma under the supervision of Domenico Fiorenza.
I am interested in the interplay between homotopy theory and operator algebras. My current research focuses on equivariant stable homotopy theory and classifying C*-algebras with symmetries by means of topological invariants.
