About Me
I am a Master's student in Computer Science at ETH Zurich, majoring in Data Management Systems with a minor in Machine Learning.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Salerno, where I graduated with top marks and developed a strong foundation in algorithms, networks, operating systems, and software engineering. Simultaneously, I pursued a second Bachelor's degree in Statistics for Big Data, which enhances my ability to analyze and interpret large-scale data systems, equipping me with complementary skills crucial for addressing modern computational challenges.
My curiosity drives me to uncover the "why" behind every problem, while my proactive nature ensures that I seek out challenges and opportunities for growth.
Research Interests
I'm interested in large-scale systems, cloud architectures, and intelligent data processing. At ETH Zurich, I aspire to collaborate with leading research groups that share my vision and contribute to advancing the state-of-the-art in these fields:
Efficient Architectures and Systems Lab (EASL)
Led by Prof. Ana Klimović. EASL designs and builds computer systems for large-scale applications, spanning operating systems, cloud computing, and the use of machine learning for system optimization. Their focus on serverless computing and resource-efficient system design resonates strongly with my goal of making large-scale data platforms more robust and accessible.
Data Processing on Modern Hardware Group
Led by Prof. Gustavo Alonso. This group explores the implications of rapidly evolving hardware and heterogeneous architectures on data systems, from databases on GPUs and FPGAs to cloud-native processing engines. I am particularly drawn to their long-term vision of building innovative systems that exploit new hardware capabilities while ensuring scalability and efficiency in cloud deployments.
