About

I am an Assistant Professor in the Computing Sciences Department at Bocconi University, and a Research Affiliate at the Bocconi Institute for Data Science and Analytics. Previously, I spent one year as a postdoctoral researcher with the Core Data Science team at Meta (London). I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Politecnico di Milano, where I was advised by Nicola Gatti. During my Ph.D. I was a Visiting Researcher at Carnegie Mellon University, where I was working with Tuomas Sandholm. I am a member of the ELLIS Society.

Research

My research focuses on problems at the intersection of computer science, optimization, and economics. The primary goals are to develop algorithms that are robust to strategic and multi-agent interactions, and to understand the behavior of systems in which multiple learning agents interact.

My research was awarded a best paper award at NeurIPS 2020 and the 2017 Lesmo prize for the best Italian MSc Thesis in Artificial Intelligence.

Grants

My research is supported by an ERC Starting Grant (2024) for the project PLA-STEER, and by a MUR-PRIN grant (2022).
