Who I am

Passionate in collecting and trasforming information into wisdom.
Ever since I was a little boy, using a computer was one of my favorite hobbies and even now I always fall asleep with my computer near my head.  After my last year of high school I decided to attend Statistics Science University in Bologna due to my strong interest in maths which is a fondamental importance in making business decisions.  I got a bachelor's degree and then I obtained a master’s degree in Statistics Science.  During these years I was involved in several students' activities and during one of these I met a professor from Milan who discussed his research studies which inspired my curiosity about the potentialness of the Big Data world.
