About Me

I am an AI Research Scientist at Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (HPE), focusing on Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning (MADRL) and Sustainability. With a Ph.D. in Computer Science, my academic background focuses on research and application of AI to improve Autonomous Vehicles and Connected Systems, and their practical applications. My work aims to drive advances in Data Centers sustainability, optimizing energy efficiency and reducing carbon footprints, and leverage AI to solve complex challenges.
