On October 2nd 2024, I successfully defended my Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Computer Science at Technical University of Berlin (TUB), where I was mentored by Prof. Volker Markl and cooperated with Zoi Kaoudi, and Jorge Quiane (in memory of Jorge). Before starting my PhD studies, I received my Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in Computer Science from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), where I was mentored by Prof. Ke Yi. Before my MPhil, I completed a 5-year Diploma (MEng) degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), my alma mater, where I conducted my diploma thesis under the mentorship of Kostas Patroumpas, whom I consider a scientific father.

Jorge passed away very unexpectedly in May 2023, leaving us all stunned and thunderstruck. Jorge was not only my mentor and pillar but also, deep down, a friend. Jorge supported and believed in me; I will always be grateful to him and will never forget him. Jorge is not with us anymore, but his legacy is forever. As he used to tell me..."somos chingones".
