I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at the SaCS lab at EPFL, based in Lausanne, Switzerland. Recently, I completed my PhD in Computer Science at INRIA and École Polytechnique in France, under the supervision of Catuscia Palamidessi. Previously, I have been a Visiting Scholar at the School of Computing at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia, collaborating with Annabelle McIver and Natasha Fernandes, and at WMG, the University of Warwick in Coventry, England, working with Carsten Maple and Graham Cormode.
My work primarily involves designing privacy-preserving techniques for analysing data and training models, with a focus on investigating and enhancing the trade-off between privacy and utility from a foundational perspective. In particular, my current research interests hover around:
I study, talk, and do mathematics most of the time; when not, I am typically immersed in chess, cricket, puzzles, or stand-up comedy. Of late, I have got myself back into the habit of (non-academic) reading in my leisure and learning about (often, apparently, useless) facts from across the realms of life. I am trying to learn French with limited success so far. The list of some of my currently favourite results and theorems in mathematics (a list that, obviously, everyone should maintain) include:
