I’m a Lead Software Engineer at ICS. I live in magnificent Athens in Greece.

My academic journey sparked a deep passion for technology, which I’ve channeled into addressing complex challenges in the tech industry.

Before moving to the industry, I received my diploma from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the University of Thessaly, Greece. In my undergraduate thesis, I worked with Assoc. Prof. Dimitrios Katsaros and DANA lab to research and evaluate various methods for detecting fake news using machine learning.

In my professional experience I have contributed to the digital transformation of various platforms gaining extensive expertise in secure transactions, microservices architecture and scalable invoicing/payment solutions.
