Summary
I am a senior lecturer at the Department of Computing of Imperial College London. As of October 2021, I am a UKRI Future Leader Fellow. Between September 2020 and July 2022 I was a consulting research scientist at Facebook, London. As of September 2022, I am a research consultant at Bloomberg.
My research is in the area of programming languages and verification, spanning several topics including non-volatile memory, persistency semantics, weak memory models, stateless model checking and program logics.
I am always eager to supervise enthusiastic candidates for PhD and Masters positions. If you are interested in programming languages theory, concurrency and formal methods, then get in touch with me!
