I am interested in..

What are you working on?

I work on theoretical particle physics models, beyond or within the Standard Model, that can help us understand results about low-energy observables like Electric Dipole Moments and meson decays relevant to the CKM anomaly. I take a phenomenological point of view, and make use of experimental results and anomalies to deduce information about the underlying symmetries and particles. Examples of specific topics that interest me are CP violation, (sterile) neutrinos and effective field theory techniques.

What are you looking to get out of the DRSTP?

I hope the DRSTP will help me to build a network of people in theoretical physics, to get an idea of possible career paths within and outside the academic world, and to expand or maintain my knowledge on theoretical physics.

What interests do you have apart from you research?

I really like to read novels, I like to run and go to the gym, I am an avid podcast-listener (interviews, law, politics) and I have recently started singing lessons. Going to the cinema, theater and cabaret are also things I love to do from time to time.
