01 // Profile

Professional summary

Physicist from the University of Patras, currently pursuing an MSc in Microsystems and Nanodevices at the National Technical University of Athens.

My work focuses on semiconductor device physics, analog and CMOS circuit design, and micro/nanofabrication — from fourth-order analog filters for implantable biomedical devices to cleanroom processing at NCSR Demokritos. I combine a rigorous physics foundation with hands-on experience in EDA tools, programming, and data analytics.
