Who Am I?

I am a PhD researcher in Operations Research (OR). My research focuses on the design and analysis of optimization algorithms for challenging scheduling and allocation problems motivated by real-world applications. I am particularly interested in applied optimization problems such as resource allocation, supply chain management, and transportation. I enjoy working on mathematical models that capture the structure of these complex problems and on turning them into solutions that can be implemented and maintained. I have hands-on experience developing software and data pipelines that support optimization models and make them useful in practice. I hold an MSc in Computer Science and a BSc in Information Technology Engineering, where I developed a strong foundation in theoretical and applied computational methods. Additionally, I bring over four years of academic research experience. Alongside research, I am currently working as a Lecturer at Maastricht University , and I like explaining complex quantitative ideas in a way that is clear, practical, and useful for different audiences.
