I'm a Software Engineer at adesso Schweiz AG in Lugano, working on enterprise applications AI-assisted workflows and cybersecurity. I hold a double Master's degree in Informatics from Università della Svizzera italiana (USI, Lugano) and Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca (UNIMIB, Milan), and a BSc in Computer Systems and Networks Securityfrom Università degli Studi di Milano.

My master's thesis, Privacy Leakage of Counterfactual Explanations in Federated Learning, studies how explanations in federated learning can make membership-inference attacks easier, and how differential privacy trades that risk against model utility. It was recognised as one of Italy's top 100 theses by Forbes Italia (2025).
