Biography

I am currently a second-year PhD student at IMDEA Networks, where I am fortunate to be advised by Dr. Lucianna Kiffer.

Broadly speaking, my research interests lie at the intersection of Economics, Computation, and Society; a space full of fascinating open questions. More specifically, I focus on:

• Security in Blockchain: MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) and economic attacks on Decentralized Finance protocols. How adversarial incentives shape the security and fairness of on-chain systems.

• Social Computing: Understanding how people interact at scale and extracting meaningful insights from text and social interactions. I’m interested in the computational and economic lens through which we can study collective behavior.

• Mechanism Design: Peer Prediction, Information Elicitation, and other subfields concerned with designing systems that incentivize honest and socially desirable behavior.

Collaboration & Mentorship

If you are looking for a Bachelor or Master’s thesis advisor, I am always happy to explore potential collaborations! I also enjoy providing guidance to those looking to break into the blockchain space.
