I am a (tenure-track) Assistant Professor at the
KTH Royal Institute of Technology, in Stockholm, Sweden.
I am part of the
Division of Theoretical Computer Science of the
Computer Science Department.
Previously, I was a Postdoc in the
Basic Algorithms Research Copenhagen (BARC) group at the
IT University of Copenhagen, hosted by
Prof. Thore Husfeldt. Before joining BARC, I was a Postdoc at
Tel Aviv University, hosted by
Prof. Guy Even.
I obtained my PhD in Computer Science from the
University of Maryland.
I had the privilege of being advised by
Prof. Samir Khuller.
I obtained my Master's degree from UMD under the supervision of
Prof. Aravind Srinivasan.
I graduated from the
University of Chicago, with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics (Honors) and Computer Science.
Research Interests
I am interested in the broad area of Theoretical Computer Science and specifically in
- Data Structures (e.g. dictionaries and Bloom filters)
- Randomized and Approximation Algorithms (e.g. hashing, clustering)
- Computational Geometry (e.g. Traveling Salesman Problem)
