Profile

Professional summary.

I am a theoretical physics graduate with a first-principles and hands-on approach. I combine mathematical physics, numerical methods, scientific software, uncertainty analysis, and practical prototyping.

Across study and projects, I have worked on alternative gravity and cosmology, black-hole dynamics, Monte Carlo photon transport, forecasting, AI-assisted automation, CAD, and embedded hardware builds. I am comfortable taking a problem from equations and assumptions into code, documentation, and communication.

Education

Academic path.

Imperial College London

2024-2025

MSc in Quantum Fields & Fundamental Forces, 4.0 GPA.

Research project completed with distinction. Thesis: Pursuit of Time in DBI, Cuscuton & Bimetric Theories. Investigated Hamiltonian and minisuperspace structure, unimodular gravity, relational time, Schrödinger-type evolution, and canonical constraints. Advanced study included Quantum Field Theory, Quantum Electrodynamics, Differential Geometry, Black Holes, Particle Symmetries & Unification, Relativity & Cosmology, and Group Theory.

Royal Holloway, University of London

2021-2024

BSc in Physics, First Class Honours, equivalent to 4.0 GPA.

Final-year project on particle motion near black holes, supported by work in Monte Carlo simulation, scientific computing, and technical presentations on nuclear fusion and diffraction.

IISS E. Majorana, Italy

2016-2021

Esame di Stato, Scientific High School.

Graduated with 90/100, including 9/10 in Mathematics, Algebra, and Calculus. Completed a perceptron-based AI project for mathematical classification problems.

Approach

How I work.

I prefer to break complex systems into essential components, describe them quantitatively, and test the outcome against data, simulation, or engineering constraints. Differential equations, numerical methods, optimisation, and dimensional reasoning are central tools in that process.

I also put strong weight on documentation and communication. I treat reports, diagrams, equations, presentations, and reusable tools as part of the work, not an afterthought.

Experience

Professional and research experience.

Technology Analyst, IDTechEx

Apr 2026 to present.

Data Enrichment Analyst / AI Agent Engineer, SCIRIS Group

Feb 2026 to Apr 2026. I developed end-to-end Python workflows for document retrieval, text extraction, LLM-based context extraction, and database update.

Research Team Member, National Physical Laboratory

Jun 2023 to Aug 2023. I built reusable workflows for uncertainty propagation and reporting in satellite radar altimetry re-tracking.

Dealer and Seller, Tappeti Persiani di Rassouli Gassem

2020 to 2021. I managed inventory, logistics data, supplier communication, and customer negotiations across multiple countries.

Scenographer and Photographer, Film Productions

Apr 2018 to Jun 2021. I supported set design, photography, permissions, transport, and on-set logistics in time-critical production environments.
