Biography

Hey there! I’m Evangelos, a computer scientist who thrives on tackling new research challenges and exploring cutting-edge ideas in various areas.

I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. at Northeastern University advised by Professor Aanjhan Ranganathan. Previously, I was a researcher at New York University in Abu Dhabi for three years, where I worked with Professor Christina Pöpper on cellular networks and aviation security. In the meantime, I completed my PG.Cert. in Advanced Cyber Security from King’s College London. Before that, I got my B.Sc. in Computer Science from Athens University of Economics and Business.

When I’m not delving into research, you’ll find me indulging in my hobbies: Traveling to new places, engaging in Sports (mainly Basketball), and enjoying Movies. I’m an avid reader with a passion for History and Philosophy. You might also catch me playing a Chess game or diving into Finance/Investing and new Languages.
