My academic journey began at the University of Bergamo, where I obtained a bachelor's degree in Economics. Following this, I pursued further education by acquiring a master's degree in Economics and Data Analysis. Through this program, I also got the label of European Master in Official Statistics, awarded by the European Statistical System Committee (ESSC).

Upon graduation in October 2021, I continued to collaborate with the University of Bergamo as a tutor, while also engaging in two research projects: "Teaching International Monetary Economics: A Critical View" and "Statistical Economic Information and Non-Probabilistic Samples."

In October 2022, I embarked on a new journey as a Ph.D. student in Applied Economics and Management, specializing in the Applied Economics curriculum, at the University of Pavia in collaboration with the University of Bergamo.

My research interests mainly concern the field of Health Economics, with particular attention to the social component of this field, namely risky health behaviors. 

During my years of studies, I continued to work as a dance teacher of different styles, mainly ballet, and as a dancer.

Dance has been and continues to be a constant element of growth for me. Ever since I was a child, dancing taught me to be on stage, to face an audience, and to smile when things don't go as planned. Very often, the motto 'the show must go on' also reminds me in everyday life that one cannot allow a mistake to ruin an entire performance.

Something extraordinary always happens on stage; the body performs what it has learned through hours and hours of sweat and hard work in the rehearsal room. The result is only a few minutes, but what's behind it is months of preparation and sacrifices, and that, for me, is the real beauty.

The mind in a choreography is of utmost importance; it holds the reins of everything, allowing you to convey emotions without being overwhelmed by them and to deliver the message you want to convey to the audience. Over the years, just like the body, I've learned to train my mind too, often underestimated by many.

Teaching and choreographing have not only allowed me to unleash my creativity but also to enhance my teaching skills. I've improved my listening and observation abilities; every individual is different and requires different phrases and attention to reach the goal. Dealing with many young dancers has allowed me to appreciate human diversity and to turn these differences into an advantage and growth for everyone.

Today, when I'm backstage before stepping onto a stage, my heart races like the first day, my mind goes into overdrive, my breath becomes labored, my legs tremble. Then the lights come on, adrenaline surges, and everything becomes an extraordinary show. 

This is life for me before a jump, you have to bend your knees a little, go down, be scared, but also have all the courage to jump.
