I am an incoming Research Scientist at Google AI in London, UK. Previously, I did my Ph.D. at the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC) of the University of Amsterdam and at the School of Informatics of the University of Edinburgh. I was a part of the EdinburghNLP and AmsterdamNLP groups.

I also interned at Huggingface and Facebook AI Research (FAIR) in London, UK and at Amazon Research in Berlin, Germany.

My work focuses on Machine Reading Comprehension, also known as Question Answering. In particular, I am working on neural models that retrieve information from a collection of documents and then answer complex questions. I also work on Entity Linking and Entity Disambiguation. More generally, I am interested in (semi-)supervised and unsupervised deep neural network applications in combination with reasoning and reinforcement methods to approach Natural Language Understanding.
