About Me

I am a PhD student in Mathematics of Leandro Vendramin working in the VUB algebra research group with an FWO PhD fellowship.

My research interest focuses on algebraic structures related to the study of the combinatorial version of the Yang-Baxter equation.

I am part of the organising team of IDEAL 2027, Together with Charlotte Roelants and Marta Messia we are organizing the conference IDEAL 2027. The conference will take place in Brussels on 3–4 June 2027, for more info: https://sites.google.com/view/idealconference/ideal-2027.

I am currently organizing, together with Charlotte Roelants and Leandro Vendramin, the algebra seminar at our department.
