About Me

I'm a computer engineer with a career spanning telecom integration, data engineering for a mutual fund, and applied machine learning, with finance domain depth from an M.Sc. in Financial Management and CFA Level I, alongside an M.Sc. in Data Science from Politecnico di Torino. I enjoy cooking and am an avid reader. The goal of this site is mainly to showcase my technical portfolio, but I also post content related to my passions. Hope you find something interesting!
