About

Hi there, welcome to my own little corner of the internet. The girl in the picture up there is me. I’m currently living in the beautiful Zurich, studying towards a PhD at the lively @ETH AI Center, where with a team of brilliant and passionate people we focus on AI to solve many of the world’s most pressing challenges.

Now, a couple of unrequested facts about me. I like coffee, sunny seaside towns, honesty and British humor. In the ever-lasting fight between cats and dogs I side with dogs (but sweet cats can easily win me over). My spirit animal is mid-way between Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts. Basically I’m a Notting Hill kid. I have many addictions considering that I haven’t been on this planet that long: I especially need movies, long runs and podcasts to keep on going through life. Generally speaking, I believe in hard work and commitment, but I value above any form of excellence a balanced and healthy perspective on life.

This is my blog, which is a space where I feel free to share my thoughts and most random interests. Just like in my life, there’s no fixed theme or grand vision. If you like some of my thoughts, or equally if you don’t and have something to tell me feel free to send me an email. That’s all for now. I’ll leave you with one of my dearest quotes:

La vita non è una competizione ma un tiro al bersaglio: non importa arrivare prima, ma saper trovare un centro.

(Life is not a race, it is an archery competition: what matters is not cutting the finish line first but finding your centre.)
