About me (brief CV)
In Fall 2019, I am starting the PhD program in CS at UW-Madison. I completed my undergraduate studies at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), Greece. I am currently doing research at Computation and Reasoning Lab (CoReLab) of ECE, NTUA, under the supervision of Prof. Dimitris Fotakis who has also supervised my undergraduate thesis. My interests lie in Algorithms and Probability.
