I am a postdoc in the group of Andela Šarić at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA), where I study the origin of the cellular organization in eukaryotic cells using coarse-grained Molecular Dynamics simulations.

I completed my PhD in 2022 under the supervision of Zorana Zeravcic and Olivier Rivoire at ESPCI Paris, where I worked on designing a minimal catalyst using programmable matter. During this time, I also studied the folding of short colloidal polymer chains in collaboration with Jasna Brujic and Angus McMullen. You can read my PhD thesis here.
