My passion for particle physics was sparked in high school when I stumbled upon one of my brother’s scientific magazines. The intricate concepts of fundamental physics captivated me, leading to countless hours immersed in physics books. This early fascination inspired me to pursue my undergraduate studies in physics, which I completed in 2015 with a project on the fractal dimension of lightning. I continued my academic journey with a master’s degree in 2017, focusing on conformal field theory. However, my professional scientific journey truly began during my Ph.D. in Particle Physics, where I specialized in Hadronic Physics and dedicated my research to the extraction of Generalized Parton Distribution Functions (GPDs).

Currently, as a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow, I am deeply involved in hadronic physics, data analysis, and particle physics phenomenology. My research interests span high-energy physics (HEP) phenomenology and the Standard Model of elementary particle physics, especially proton puzzles. I find immense joy in uncovering new truths about the universe, much like the excitement I feel when baking cookies. The process of discovery, whether in the kitchen or the lab, fuels my enthusiasm and drives my work.
