Présentation

I was born in Avellino, Italy, in 1983.

I received the Master degree in automatic control engineering and the PhD degree in information engineering from University of Sannio, Benevento, Italy, in 2010 and 2013, respectively. In 2012, I was a visiting student at INRIA Rhône-Alpes, France.

After one year of Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Department of Engineering, University of Sannio, I had a postdoctoral position at IMPA (Instituto Nacional de Matemática Pura e Aplicada), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

From August 2015 to June 2017, I was Assistant Professor at the Department of Electronic and Telecommunications Engineering at State University of Rio de Janeiro (UERJ), Brazil, where I taught two courses: Automatic control and Mathematical model for electrical engineering.

From October 2018 to December 2020, I was Ingénieur de recherche at Mines ParisTech, Sophia Antipolis, where I collaborate on the European Project, called Clim2Power.

My current research interests include analysis of nonsmooth dynamical systems, in particular, piecewise linear and complementarity systems; modelling and control of power electronic converters; numerical algorithms for complementarity problems; global optimization. Lately, I got interest also for machine learning applied to energy problems.
