About
I am a compiler engineer at Certora in London. Previously, I worked as a static analysis software engineer at Lacework. I hold a PhD in Computer Science from Sorbonne University (Paris), completed under the supervision of Professor Antoine Miné, as part of the ERC MOPSA project. From October 2022 to March 2023 I have been an applied scientist intern working in the Amazon Prime Video Automated Reasoning group. I obtained a BSc and an MSc in Computer Science at University of Padua (Italy). For my Master's Thesis I worked on the language inclusion problem for ω-regular languages.

Software
- Mopsa: framework to write static analyses by abstract interpretation.
- rat: Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attacks static analyzer.
- bait: (Büchi Automata Inclusion Tester) a ω-regular language inclusion checker. It relies on abstract interpretation theory, while being sound and complete.
- pilisp: a garbage collected interpreter written in C for a dialect of Lisp inspired to Common Lisp. The main feature is that it supports homoiconicity (as Lisp 1.5). It also has a bytecode compiler and bytecode interpreter which make the interpreter faster than CLISP.
