I’m a MSc Data Science student and fellow NLP researcher at the Insid&s Lab at the University of Milano Bicocca under the supervision of Matteo Palmonari, working on saefty and interpretability of LLMs.

I’ve been a VSR at Stanford under the supervision of Dan Jurafsky and Federico Bianchi working on mechanistic interpretability for AI Safety. Recently, I’ve been working on validating and improving Sparse Autoencoders.

I’m also a volunteer ML specialist at The Good Scientists.
