Algorithmic Game Theory · Fair Division · Mechanism Design · Algorithms

I am a Ph.D. student at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics. I have the privilege of being advised by Hannaneh Akrami. My research is in algorithmic game theory and theoretical computer science, with a particular focus on fair division, mechanism design, and the design and analysis of algorithms for economic problems. From April to September 2026, I was a research intern at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics under the supervision of Kurt Mehlhorn.

Research

I am interested in mathematical and algorithmic questions at the interface of computer science and economics. Much of my recent work studies fairness guarantees for allocating indivisible resources.
