I graduated with a B.A. in Mathematics at the University of Cambridge. Soon after, I became a member of the "Selection Internationale" program at the E?cole Normale Supe?rieure for the duration of my Master degrees and the first year of PhD.

I obtained my PhD at the University of Cambridge, under the supervision of Prof. Sir W.T. Gowers, FRS.

I have been a postdoctoral fellow for at IMPA (Instituto de Matema?tica Pura e Aplicada) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, working with Prof. R. Morris and later on at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel, working with Prof. G. Kalai. Then, I spent a year as visiting professor at Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina in Floriano?polis, Brazil.

Currently I'm a BGSMath funded postoc, affiliated with the UPC.
