About me:

I am a theoretical physicist working on quantum field theory, scattering amplitudes, and gravitational waves. Since 2024, I am a CEA permanent researcher at the Institut de Physique Théorique (IPhT) in Saclay. Previously, I was a fellow at Queen Mary University of London supported by the UKRI grant “EikoGrav”, and before that I held postdoc positions at Uppsala University and Nordita, Stockholm.

My research focuses on the classical limit of scattering amplitudes and their application to the calculation of gravitational-wave observables in the post-Minkowskian approximation. I am also interested in asymptotic symmetries, soft theorems and memory effects in gauge theories and gravity.
