Hi! I am a doctoral student in the Institute for Machine Learning at ETH Zürich, where I am advised by Prof. Mrinmaya Sachan, and co-advised by Prof. Yonatan Belinkov (Technion).
My research focuses on evaluating and interpreting machine learning models for natural language processing. I am particularly interested in exploring the capabilities of (large) language models in areas such as solving arithmetic problems and reasoning over factual and commonsense knowledge.
In summer 2024, I interned with the AI Frontiers group at Microsoft Research in Redmond, WA, where I had the opportunity to collaborate with Besmira Nushi and Eric Horvitz. Previously, in summer 2023, I interned with the Machine Learning Research Group at Oracle Labs in Burlington, MA, working with Ari Kobren.
Before starting my doctoral studies, I obtained a Master’s degree in Data Science at ETH Zürich, and I worked at Rethink-Resource on the development of Circado. I completed my undergraduate studies in Computer Engineering at Politecnico di Milano.
I am grateful to be a recipient of the CYD Doctoral Fellowship.
