I was born in the ancient Etruscan city of Fiesole, near Firenze, and I have been passionate about ancient languages and histories for as long as I can remember. My grandmother Marialuisa, a Classics scholar herself, began teaching me Latin and Greek when I was six. It was love at first sight! My fascination with data science and the ways digital techniques can bridge with the humanities began during my PhD, and it continues to grow as I strive to learn more and to find new ways to apply them.
