About

Ciao! I’m a Software Developer from Pisa, Italy, currently finishing my Master’s in Computer Science, specializing in ICT Solution Architecture. I have hands-on experience with web projects, data analysis, and distributed architectures, and my goal is to design robust, scalable, and secure software that makes a real impact.

Beyond coding, I’m a tech enthusiast at heart. I love tinkering with different Unix-based operating systems, and there’s a special kind of satisfaction I get from assembling or modifying PCs. It’s like building with digital LEGOs! To keep my mind and body in sync, I was a middle-distance runner and now I enjoy hitting the pavement for a run or challenging myself at the gym.

I also serve as President of JEVIS, the Junior Enterprise of Pisa, after leading its IT area — doing project management, technical training, and a fair share of public speaking, with 10+ interventions at university and JE network events. I believe in continuous learning: let’s build something amazing together!
