About me

I am currently a Postdoc at Max Planck Computing & Data Facility (MPCDF). I am part of the Plasma-PEPSC project, a EuroHPC Center of Excellence project aimed at preparing four European flagship plasma codes for exascale. My main role for this project is to develop a block-structured grid library for the Gyrokinetic code GENE which is used to perform Tokamak simulations.

Previously, I obtained my PhD in Aeronautics and Space Engineering from Sapienza University of Rome. My PhD topic was aimed at studying distributed surface roughness effects in supersonic turbulent flows through Direct Numerical Simulations using our in-house code STREAmS-2. Additionally, I developed a tool to automatically convert STREAmS-2 to any backends targeting NVIDIA GPUs (CUDA Fortran), AMD GPUs (HIPFort) and CPUs.

I am parallely involved in other research and personal projects. I would like to use this website to frequently update my progress. Here are some interesting resources that I feel are worth sharing.
