My research sits at the intersection of robustness and language: I study how large language models break under adversarial pressure — arithmetic attacks, distributional shift, multi-hop reasoning failures — and build methods to make them more resilient.

Before this, I completed my PhD at the University of Parma under Prof. Andrea Prati at IMP Lab, where I developed adversarial learning and data augmentation techniques for more robust language models.
