Welcome!
I am a postdoctoral researcher at NYU Tandon School of Engineering in Damon McCoy's team. I obtained my PhD in Sorbonne Université (while being based in EURECOM), under the supervision of Patrick Loiseau & Oana Goga.
I acquired my Diploma (5 years) in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the NTUA. I also have a MSc in Communications & Computer Security from EURECOM.
I am broadly interested in security and privacy, AI and society, internet measurements, transparency and interpretability, and e-crime.
July 2025. Our PETS 2025 paper Tracker Installations Are Not Created Equal: Understanding Tracker Configuration of Form Data Collection received the Andreas Pfitzmann Best Student Paper Award, and the associated poster of our PETS 2025 paper More and Scammier Ads: The Perils of YouTube's Ad Privacy Settings received the Best Poster Award. Congrats to Julia and Cat!
September 2023. I started working as a postdoctoral researcher at NYU Tandon School of Engineering in Damon McCoy's team.
