I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Theoretical Computer Science and Algorithms at The University of Sydney, where I am part of the Sydney Algorithms and Computing Theory group (SACT) and I am supervised by Professor Tony Wirth. Before that, I completed my PhD at the University of California, Santa Cruz, where I was advised by Professor C. Seshadhri. Before I completed my MS in Computer Science at the University of Southern California, and I studied at the University of Málaga in Spain, where I was advised by Professor Marlon Núñez.
One of my main areas of interest is subgraph counting, specifically developing efficient algorithms for sparse graphs and hypergraphs, and finding fine-grained complexity bounds. Part of my work also involves implementing these algorithms in practice, obtaining algorithms that work well with real-world graphs with good theoretical guarantees.
