AI Engineer specializing in Generative AI, GraphRAG, and agentic systems, building production-grade tools with Neo4j and LangGraph used daily by educators. I combine hands-on AI engineering with industrial R&D and project management experience in chemistry-related fields, taking ideas from prototype to product. I’m passionate about emerging technology with a deep curiosity for chemistry, green sciences, and the circular economy. I enjoy designing full-stack AI pipelines (ontology, retrieval, orchestration, evaluation) and supporting R&D initiatives through technical guidance for EU/Italian funding programs.
