My journey began with a spark of curiosity in physics and chemistry, which drove me to push beyond the classroom—from participating in the Chemistry Olympics to competing in the Bocconi Mathematics Competitions. Every challenge fueled my passion for discovery.

But I’ve never been content with theory alone—I love to build. In my second year, this curiosity led me into the world of embedded systems, where I experimented with Arduino, ESP32, and microcontrollers, transforming bold ideas into working prototypes.

Then I discovered cybersecurity, and everything changed. What started as a school course evolved into a national training camp experience, culminating in a Silver Medal at the Olicyber National Finals in Turin. Four unforgettable days of tackling complex challenges solidified my drive to grow and excel in a field where innovation and security go hand in hand.

Where it all began—the first spark of curiosity and creativity, setting the stage for everything that followed.
