Short Bio
His main research interest is Quantum Computing, a field he is currently exploring as a PhD student in Modeling and Data Science at the Department of Computer Science, University of Turin, Italy.
He earned a Master of Science in Computer Engineering from Politecnico di Torino under the supervision of Prof. Antonio José Di Scala. Collaborating with Security Pattern, his thesis focused on integrating CRYSTALS-KYBER post-quantum cryptographic algorithms into embedded systems, leading to a first-author publication presented at the 29th IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC) in Paris, France.
He worked as a System Manager at Ericsson, where he managed R&D projects in multicultural, cross-functional environments and strengthened his soft skills, clear communication, and conflict resolution.
