I’m an Italian Computer Science Postgraduate Student living in London. I am deeply interested in the fields of Data Science and AI, with particular regard to researching their applications in the Healthcare and Genomics sectors.

During my high school years, I took part in various Italian Competitions, ranging from Mathematics to Physics and Natural Sciences, reaching the National level Problem-Solving Italian Olympiads. These have pushed me to build teamwork and leadership skills and to learn how to perform to the best of my abilities, especially under pressure.

Education

After living in a small countryside town in central Italy for my entire life, I moved to London in 2021 to pursue my undergraduate studies in Computer Science and Mathematics. The degree has allowed me to gain knowledge and skills in a wide variety of subjects, like Data Structures, Operating Systems and Deep Learning. At the same time, the joint nature of the degree enabled me to also explore more advanced topics in Mathematics.
During these years at QMUL, I worked as a Demonstrator for EECS modules, overseeing and offering support to groups of first- and second-year students. The experience not only enabled me to solidify my communication and time management skills, but it allowed me to fully appreciate the importance of sharing knowledge in the Scientific Community.

I am now attending Imperial College London, undertaking my Masters studies in Advanced Computing and currently working on my Dissertation on “Privacy of Synthetic Data in Genomics”.

Extracurriculars and Interests

Alongside my studies, I have enrolled in a variety of virtual work experiences and online courses in Machine Learning, Data Visualization and Software Engineering, also exploring topics outside the direct scope of my degree, including Nutrition and Bioinformatics.
I also have a knack for anything design-related. I have occasionally worked on Front-End development and Design side projects, using tools like Figma and Canva alongside JavaScript, React and CSS to create and build web applications.

One of my life goals is to try out as many sports as I can! I was a ballerina and dancer for 6 years, did Karate for 5 more, and have just started my Climbing and Bouldering journey a little over 8 months ago. In the midst of these, I played tennis, swimming, running (competing in my first 10k just last year!), weight lifting, and have recently discovered a passion for Calisthenics.
I also love playing chess and I used to take part in friendly (and non) competitions in my hometown and school.
