Until July 2017 I was a M.Sc. student in the Computer Science & Engineering department at the University of Ioannina working under the supervision of prof. Panayiotis Tsaparas.

I received my B.Sc.(January 2015) in Computer Science from the University of Ioannina.

My research interests are in the area of Algorithmic Data Mining, and its applications on Social Networks and Computational Sociology. I am particularly interested in studying graph algorithms for Social Network Analysis and algorithms for web data.

Since August 2017 I am PhD student at the department of Computer Science at Aalto University, under the supervision of prof. Aristides Gionis.
