I got my MSc in Chemistry from Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca.
I spent 5 months as a postgraduate researcher at ETH Zurich in the theoretical chemistry group led by professor Jeremy O. Richardson. With this project, we provided and apply a cost-efficient methodology to compute the tunnelling splittings, using Ring-Polymer instanton theory and taking into account the molecular Berry phase.
From November 2018 I joined the Capgemini Group and worked as a Computer programmer and analyst consultant, with the objective of providing insights and technical support to the network engeneering group of a major telephone company.
In October 2019 I have joined the group of Michele Ceotto.

Main research interests

  • Development of new approaches to simplify and enhance computer simlations.
  • Apply machine learning techniques to model non-trivial properties using chemistry databases and molecular descriptors.
