Research

Currently I work as a research assistant in the New Paradigms in Computing group at Helsinki Institute for Information Technology HIIT, University of Helsinki under the supervision of Jukka Suomela. My research area is weak models of distributed computing.

Previously I have worked in the Combinatorial Algorithms and Computation group at Aalto University under the supervision of Pekka Orponen. My research area was the algorithmic aspects of DNA self-assembly.

Education

I am studying for a bachelor's degree at University of Helsinki with a major in mathematics and a minor in computer science.
