From October 2022 to October 2025, I was a doctoral candidate in Mathematics at the University of Göttingen. I worked under the supervision of Dr. Federico Vigolo and I was a member of the Research Training Group 2491: "Fourier Analysis and Spectral Theory". In October 2025, I successfully defended my PhD thesis titled "Generalised Diagonal Dimension and Roe-Like Algebras".


Research:

My research interests lie in the intersection of Coarse Geometry and Operator algebras. I am interested in the K-theory of Roe algebras, which are C*-algebras associated with metric spaces and capture the large scale geometry of the space. More precisely, I am focused in the Roe algebra of Warped Cones, spaces which may be used to construct examples that violate the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture.
In addition, I am interested in the diagonal dimension of Cartan subalgebras in C*-algebras and their connection with coarse geometry.
