About me

I was born in Brescia in 1989. I grew up in Franciacorta’s country side, a beautiful place where you can appreciate the incredible landscapes drinking superb wines.

As a passionate technologist with a background in high-performance computing and data science, I’ve developed expertise in optimising complex algorithms for global pathogen evolution and distribution models. This experience has fuelled my drive to design and build scalable, resilient, cloud-native solutions that tackle complex challenges head-on. My approach centers on creating future-ready systems that ensure data integrity, minimise failure scenarios, and automatically scale with problem complexity.

I excel at leading multi-disciplinary teams from concept to delivery, driving business-driven projects with a keen eye for innovation and efficiency. My expertise extends to application integration design and sustainable architecture development, particularly in highly regulated sectors such as healthcare, life sciences, energy, and finance.

Outside of work, I’m a private pilot, an avid cyclist and a passionate mountain hiker. These diverse interests enhance my ability to approach projects from multiple angles and work effectively with diverse teams. I’m eager to leverage my technical skills, leadership experience, and domain knowledge to drive innovation, mentor emerging talent, and craft impactful solutions that address the unique challenges in today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape.

My accademic life

I started my accademic life in 2008, year during which I started by Bachelor studies in Milan, IT. There I studied and I obtained the Industrial and Environmental Biotechnology bachelor degree @ University of Milan - IT in Oct ‘11.

I moved to Zürich (Switzerland) on Feb ‘12 where I attended a two-years Master Course in Computational Biology and Bioinformatic @ Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich (ETHZ).

In Feb ‘13 I joined Prof. Konrad Basler group for a small research project (lab rotation) @ IMLS (Institute of Molecular Life Sciences - University of Zürich) under the supervision of Dr. Simon Restrepo that successfully ended in Oct’13.

From June ‘14 to Jan ‘15, after my master thesis project on modelling D. melanogaster tubular organs through FEM simulations, I was a Research Assistant under the supervision of Prof. Konrad Basler (UZH) and Dr. Yanlan Mao (UCL). In this period of time, I was involved in the software engineering of EpiTools, an image processing software for epithelial tissues.

In Feb’15, I joined Dr. Maria Anisimova bioinformatics group as a PhD candidate in computational science and phylogenetics at Zurich University of Applied Sciences in Wädenswil (ZH). In Feb ‘18, I moved back to University of Zurich to complete my PhD in the group of Prof. Dr. Christian von Mering. On 4th Dec ‘18, I defended my PhD thesis titled “Realistic Evolutionary Models for Phylogenetic-Guided Analyses” and I successfully passed the doctoral exam at University of Zurich.

My professional journey

Since Aug, ‘19, I am a non-executive board member of Country Rose SRL, a shirt company founded by my parents. In this role, I am responsible for:


Until Apr ‘20, I worked as Cloud Engineer/Architect at Amanox Solutions AG, in Bern (CH), and in this role:

I assisted many customers during their journey to the cloud. Among my clients, I worked with:


In June ‘20, I started working in the Digital & Commerce Tecnology department at Alpiq, AG. At first, I covered the role of Cloud Engineer in the Application Operation Support team, and lately I took on the responsibility as Technical Lead. In this position, I was responsible for:


In July ‘22, I embarked as Senior Solutions Architect for Healthcare and Life Sciences in the Startup team at AWS. I work closely with healthcare and life sciences (HCLS) startups in EMEA’s regulated markets. I provide strategic guidance on leveraging AWS cloud capabilities, fostering success through best practices and structural growth. I help startups navigate regulatory compliance and emerging technologies. I excel at community building and I facilitate collaboration among stakeholders. Across EMEA, I am driving these initiatives:


From Feb ‘25, I will hold my heading true and fly to open horizons - above the clouds, to a new journey.
