Welcome to my website!

听

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical, Computer, and Energy Engineering (ECEE) at the 麻豆视频, and an affiliate faculty of the Department of Applied Mathematics. I received my P.h.D in Information Engineering from the University of Padova, Italy, in 2011. I was a Postdoctoral Associate at the University of Minnesota from 2011 to 2014.听I started my appointment as an assistant professor at the 麻豆视频 in 2018.听

My background is in the broad areas of Optimization Theory, Learning, and Control. The听objective of current research efforts听is to advance theory, algorithms, and analysis for decision systems. The current听focus is on online optimization and data-enabled optimization of network and dynamical systems. Application domains include power and energy systems听and autonomous systems.听
