I am a Computer Science Ph.D. Student at ETH Zürich in the Secure and Private AI (SPY) Lab, advised by Florian Tramèr. My interest is in how the current (and future) research about the security and privacy of machine learning systems can be applied to real-world systems. My research is supported by a CYD Doctoral Fellowship awarded by the armasuisse Cyber-Defence Campus.
Prior to my PhD journey, I earned a Computer Science M.Sc. at EPFL and a Computer Engineering B.Sc. at the Polytechnic University of Turin. I did my Master thesis about the robustness of Vision Transformers supervised by Princeton University’s Prof. Mittal, and I am one of the co-authors and maintainers of RobustBench.
I previously interned as an SWE intern at Bloomberg LP and as a Research Intern at the armasuisse CYD Campus, supervised by Prof. Humbert.
