Short Bio
I am a fifth-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science from Columbia University under the supervision of Prof. Mihalis Yannakakis and Prof. Rocco Servedio.
My main research interests lie in the areas of computational learning theory, probabilistic analysis of algorithms and algorithmic game theory.
Before joining Columbia University, I was an intern for "Athena" Research & Innovation Center in Athens, Greece. I received a Bachelor & M.Sc. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from one of Greece's "Grand Schools", in ECE Department of National Technical University of Athens, where I was advised by Prof. Dimitris Fotakis.
