I am a postdoctoral researcher in Statistics at University of Milano-Bicocca, where I’m working on Bayesian nonparametrics under the supervision of Federico Camerlenghi.

In January 2025, I obtained a PhD in Statistics and Computer Science at Bocconi University, under the supervision of Antonio Lijoi and Igor Prünster.

I’m also a member of the Bayesian Learning Laboratory (Bayes Lab) at Bocconi University.
