About me

I am a PhD student at EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland. I was an EDIC Fellow during my first year. I am interested in post quantum cryptography and digital signatures. I am working in the LASEC lab supervised by Pr. Serge Vaudenay and Pr. Christophe Petit (ULB).

Previously

I completed a Bachelor in Mathematics at the University of Geneva (2016-2019), with an exchange semester at the University of Toronto during my 3rd year.

I then obtained a MASt in Pure Mathematics at the University of Cambridge (2019-2020), more commonly known as Part III of the Mathematical Tripos, specializing in Number Theory.

I went on with another Master in Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Geneva (2020-2021), with a focus on cryptography and security.

Random

I contribute to the organization of the Women in Cryptography seminar. Check it out here.

If you are applying to a PhD in Computer Science at EPFL, and would like to get feedback from Phd students on application material, check out our RAMP program here. I’m proud of supporting this program by being a RAMP mentor.

If you are reading cryptography-related papers and have questions about it, check out AskCrypto, a great initiative for sharing knowledge about cryptography launched by my colleague Abdullah Talayhan.
