About me

I am an Assistant Professor of Mathematics at Rutgers University.

Previously, I was a Research Assistant Professor at UIC from 2019 to 2022. I held a postdoctoral position at the University of Münster in Spring 2019. I received my PhD at the University of Turin in 2018 under the supervision of Luca Motto Ros.

My research is supported by the NSF grant DMS – 2348819.

Research interests

Mathematical logic, descriptive set theory, and infinite group theory.
