About me

I am a Researcher working on efficient generative models and world models. My research focuses on diffusion models, image and video generation, 3D understanding and geometry-aware representations, and post-training. I am interested in building controllable and efficient generative models with applications in spatial intelligence, robotics, and interactive world simulation.

I completed my PhD at University College London, supervised by Niloy J. Mitra and Noam Aigerman. My studies were funded by UKRI Centre for Doctoral Training in Foundational Artificial Intelligence. Before that, I completed my MSc and BSc at Politecnico di Milano.
