I am a PhD student at the Network Science Institute, Northeastern University London, advised by Prof. István Z. Kiss.
My research interests include optimization, graph theory, and algorithms, with a focus on their applications in network science.
Prior to my PhD, I completed an MSc in Industrial Mathematics at the University of Hamburg, with a master's thesis at the Institute for Algorithms and Complexity, TUHH.
Before that, I studied Computer Science and Mathematics at the University of Ljubljana and worked as a student researcher at the Jožef Stefan Institute.
