Biography
After gaining experience in the IT industry, I transitioned into academia to further my understanding of Computer Science, focusing on machine learning, AI, and modeling. I completed both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees at the University of Vienna, graduating with honors in 2022. Alongside my studies, I worked as a research and teaching assistant, which provided valuable practical experience and deepened my theoretical knowledge.
I am currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Vienna, where my research investigates the efficiency, expressivity, and robustness of (graph) neural networks, with a particular focus on adversarial attacks. My work aims to contribute to the theoretical and practical advancements in AI.
