I am a Master's student in Theoretical and Computational Physics at EPFL (Switzerland). My research interests lie at the intersection of statistical physics, machine learning dynamics, and quantum computing. I combine a rigorous theoretical background with strong software engineering practices to build scalable computational tools for scientific research.
- Investigating the learning dynamics and structural priors of Transformer attention mechanisms (SPOC Laboratory, EPFL)
- Simulating quantum algorithms and evaluating hardware noise limits on real IBM Quantum devices
- Developing robust backend software and APIs for spacecraft operations (EPFL Spacecraft Team)
- Advanced topics in Statistical Physics, Reinforcement Learning, and Computational Quantum Physics
- The mathematical foundations of deep learning (spectral signatures, eigenvalue distributions, etc.)
- High-performance scientific computing and systems programming (Rust, C/C++, Python)
- Open-source scientific computing, quantum information, or theoretical ML projects
- Implementations of novel neural network architectures or physical simulations
- Projects bridging the gap between theoretical physics and applied data science
- Theoretical physics, quantum mechanics, and statistical modeling
- Machine learning theory (e.g., PSD geometry, semantic similarity in attention mechanisms)
- Building robust computational pipelines and backend architectures

- In my spare time, I run Studio Bernoulli—a personal coding sandbox where I experiment with bridging abstract physics concepts, rigorous mathematical modeling, and creative software development!
