Supersymmetric Beasts and Where to Find Them

I decided to become a particle physicist during my undergraduate studies at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland, where I graduated in 2016 with a thesis on the mixing and CP violation of neutral charmed meson systems with the LHCb experiment at CERN. This experience convinced me to continue my academic career with a PhD in Particle Physics with the University of Geneva, where I obtained in 2020 a PhD degree working on the reconstruction of hadronic final states and searches for supersymmetric particles using the ATLAS experiment, one of the flagship detectors of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) facility at CERN. Today I am still performing my research within the ATLAS Collaboration as a postdoctoral researcher with the ATLAS group of TRIUMF, Canada's national particle accelerator centre.
