About
I am a computational particle physicist specializing in generative simulation and jet physics. My research bridges algorithmic innovation, including the development of novel jet definition techniques leveraging eigenvalue spectra. I have contributed to critical infrastructure of the ATLAS experiment, such as jet energy spectrum and resolution calibration, and the validation and deployment of fast simulation frameworks. Currently, my work focuses on pioneering fast generative methods for next-generation Higgs factory calorimeters and modeling extensive air showers, with an emphasis on scalability and computational efficiency.
