I am a mathematician with research interests in mathematical logic and category theory, in particular dependent type theories and categorical logic. I obtained a PhD in mathematics at Stockholms universitet in Sweden under the supervision of Erik Palmgren.
Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Genoa Logic Group at Dipartimento di Matematica (DIMA) of the University of Genoa in Italy. Until December 2022 my position was funded by a scholarship from KoA Wallenbergs Stiftelse.
Previously, I was a Research Fellow at the School of Computer Science of the University of Birmingham in UK, working with Benedikt Ahrens and Paige Randall North. Before that, I held a postdoc position (assegno di ricerca) at DIMA with Pino Rosolini.
I am part of ItaCa, the Italian community of category theorists.
