I am a computer engineer and Master’s student in Computer Science at ETH Zürich, specializing in Machine Intelligence, with an expected graduation date of April 2026. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering from Politecnico di Torino, where I graduated with honors. My experience spans full-stack software engineering and applied machine learning, including professional roles at Benetics AG in Zürich and Getapper in Torino. I have worked with Python, FastAPI, DynamoDB, and S3 on the backend, and React and React Native with TypeScript on the frontend. I am particularly interested in building intelligent, practical systems that bridge research and real-world applications.
