About

An avid enthusiast of Latin and Greek in my spare time, and a Physics PhD candidate by day. I work at the intersection of optics, hardware architecture, and AI. My research focuses on exploring the experimental and theoretical boundaries of Spatial Photonic Ising Machines to solve complex optimization problems or simulate the functioning of parts of the brain. Jointly supervised by Prof. Claudio Conti (Sapienza University) and Dr. Marco Leonetti (IIT-CLNS).
