Profile

I obtained a bachelor’s degree in computer science (University of Perugia, Italy, 2012), and two master’s degree, one in theoretical computer science (École Normale Supérieure of Lyon, France, 2014), and one in computer science (University of Bologna, Italy, 2015). My most recent academic degree is a PhD in applied mathematics (University of Manchester, UK, 2019).

After receiving the degree, I was a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Manchester, UK, and at Örebro University, Sweden, where I held a fellowhip funded by the Wenner–Gren Foundations.

Before joining the University of Leeds, I was an Assistant Professor in Scientific Computing at Durham University, UK.
