About me
I’m a first-year doctoral student at EPFL, working broadly on security and privacy topics. I’m a recipient of a fellowship by EPFL’s doctoral school, and I’m splitting my first year between Alessandro Chiesa’s COMPSEC lab (working on zero-knowledge proof systems) and Carmela Troncoso’s SPRING lab (designing real-world systems to improve the security and privacy of at-risk users).
Before that, I worked on verifiable and robust Fully Homomorphic Encryption in Anwar Hithnawi’s Privacy-Preserving Systems Lab at ETH Zurich, and I hold a joint Master’s in Cyber-Security from EPFL and ETH.
At the moment, I’m mainly interested in improving the state-of-the-art in Privacy-Enhancing Technologies (particularly fully homomorphic encryption and zero-knowledge proofs). During my Bachelor’s and Master’s, I’ve also worked on static analysis and formal verification and privacy issues of machine learning.
In my free time, I’m involved in the non-profits ETH Cyber Group — Student Initiative and L’Association Francophone des Étudiants de Zurich. I also fence and rant about opera.
