Short Bio

I obtained my master's degree in computer science in 2018 at the University of Pisa, Italy, and my PhD in 2022 at the University of Helsinki, Finland. I currently hold a postdoc position in the Quantum Algorithms and Software cross-group at the University of Helsinki. My broad research interests focus on algorithms and complexity theory, and I moved towards quantum computing since the end of my PhD. My publications deal with string problems on graphs, for which I studied (and I am studying) conditional lower bounds and upper bounds, both in the classical and quantum realms.
