I am a PhD student at the Max-Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems and the ELLIS Institute of Tubingen under the supervision of Maksym Andriushchenko in the AI Safety and Alignment group. I completed my Masters in Artificial Intelligence at Université de Montréal, Mila and CRCHUM, co-advised by Prof. Bang Liu and Dr. Quoc Nguyen as part of the Applied Computational Linguistics Lab.

My current research focuses on understanding and evaluating the long-horizon capabilities of AI agents, with particular emphasis on quantifying potential risks associated with increasingly autonomous AI systems. My main focus revolves around forecasting, which I believe to be an essential benchmark for properly assessing AI capabilities. During my Masters, I explored how large language models can be aligned and calibrated by leveraging insights from model interpretability, with a focus on concept-based explanations.

I am broadly interested in:

• Evaluation of AI agent capabilities
• AI Safety and LLM alignment
• Activation-based jailbreaks and defenses

During my undergraduate and graduate studies, I also led the UdeM AI undergraduate club, organizing networking and conference events. Outside of research, I am a big fan of racket sports.
