About Me

Curiosity is how it works.

I'm a second-year Economics student at the University of Exeter, with a particular interest in data science, game theory and applied analysis of markets.

I've worked at Bread & Butter Collective in Exeter as a Marketing & Viewing Assistant and Account Manager — running competitive analysis, building Excel models and managing client viewings. Native Italian, fluent English, currently looking for a placement in Milan.

Got a placement in mind?

I'm open to placement opportunities, internships and conversations about analytics, economics or anything in between — particularly in Milan from September.
