Hello world! I am a postdoctoral researcher at Lehigh University.

My research lies at the intersection of theory, methodology, and computation in mixed-integer programming and combinatorial optimization, with particular focus on analyzing complex problems arising from various real-world applications.

I hold a Ph.D in Operations Research from University of Rome Sapienza and an M.S. and B.S. in Computer Science from University of L’Aquila. Currently, I am part of the Computational Optimization Research at the COR@L group, Lehigh University.
