Profile (not up-to-date)

I am a senior post-doctoral researcher at the Wolfgang Pauli Institute (WPI) in Vienna. Prior to this I was a senior post-doctoral researcher at the Technische Universität Wien (TU Wien, Austria) funded by the FWF START project headed by Prof. Agata Ciabattoni (2012-17) and the FWF-ANR Transnational TICAMORE project (since 2017). Before this I was a post-doctoral researcher at the LIX (École Polytechnique, France) in the PSI project headed by Dr. Stéphane Graham-Lengrand and Dr Assia Mahboubi, working on a proof-theory for reasoning about satisfiability modulo theories (SMT). I completed my PhD at The Australian National University, Canberra in 2011 under the supervision of Prof. Rajeev Goré (thesis).
