Welcome! I am a postdoctoral researcher at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI). I am hosted by Guido Schäfer in the Networks & Optimization (N&O) group. I enjoy working on problems lying in the intersection of theoretical computer science, operations research and economics.

In 2023, I completed my PhD in the Department of Informatics of Athens University of Economics and Business. I was very fortunate to be advised by Vangelis Markakis and be part of the department’s Theory Group.

Here is my CV.

Programme Committees: ECAI (2024), SAGT (2023)
