Main languages used:
Other side technologies/skills include:
During my stay at HABITS I'm aquiring the knowledge to bridge technologies, hacking various appliances and use them inside industrial design products prototypes. These bridges involves programming microcontrollers to create custom lighting effects or handling sensors with the various comm protocols such as I2C,I2S,SERIAL,SPI.
_PlayJuggling: (for 4 years) leader in the field of gymnastic/circus equipment.
_YoungDoIt: (for 1 years) the youth center in the city of Arese.
Various range of works using social technologies to promote these companies
Degree in computer science for the new media communications, with a thesis on a capacitive 2-axis MIDI instrument
“A multi-touch control surface implemented as a MIDI controller” , despite graduating in New Media Communication,
I wanted to make a formal bridge with a passion of mine (music) by writing a thesis in collaboration with the
LIM (Milano Statal University’s Music Informatics Laboratory)
Meanwhile studying for University I've done various freelence work on social media communication and event organizing.
Main languages used:
a one year contract (2019) with MBE as an IT Assistant , where I was put to do data entry, bridging datas manually through different platforms. I than started (out of personal desire basically) to automate these processes using Python and APIs to automatically take datas form servers and dbs, rearrange and correct them, and send them back to the other platforms. Through this experience I learnt how much I love to make processes much more efficient. During the year at MBE I became proficient in scripting with Python and powershell bash scripting to automate data copying between different web platforms using different APIs.
I'm really interested in developing efficient tools to bridge technologies, and I'm trying to stay
in different environments to always be inspired.
I have different passions that I try to nurture with work, I love to always understand more about
a concept or an idea to continuously expand my knoledge and my skills.
While I'm certain of not being super skillfull in only one thing in particular, I think being multi-disciplinar
enrich the ability to be able to juggle differen tasks and being able to actively jump in different environments.
_Università Degli Studi di Milano – University (October 2018 – April 2024) (one year of work in between)
_Grammar B2, Listening/comprehension C1 English certificate (CEFR Cambridge)
_Liceo Scientifico G. Falcone & P. Borsellino – High school (2013-2018)
_High school diploma- 13th grade
_Scuola Media Leonardo Da Vinci – Middle school (2011-2013)
_Middle school diploma – 8th grade
I'm interested in tech, jazz/fusion music and performing arts
These spaces allow me to experiment in different directions and relax.
While probably these passions won't never become a job, I still try to nurture
them and using that to connect with people.
It has been many years now that I have been volunteering in a youth center to organize
cultural events, and I think volunteering doing a thing I love is such a good "giving back" to che community
and myself too.
