My passion for cybersecurity began at Unisannio, where my thesis research on malware analysis and software supply chain security focused on uncovering hidden behaviours in trusted systems.
That path led me to Politecnico di Torino for an MEng in Cybersecurity Engineering, where I built a broad foundation across cryptography, network security, hardware security, wireless security, kernel security, AI-driven threat detection, and web application security - deliberately broad, because understanding the full attack surface is what makes a security engineer effective.
From there, I moved to Huawei Research in Dusseldorf, working on privacy-preserving technologies and post-quantum secure authentication, applying cryptographic research to challenges that will matter as infrastructure evolves.
Whether the problem is vulnerability research, secure system design, threat analysis, or applied cryptography, I am drawn to work at the intersection of rigorous theory and real-world impact.
I also have a growing interest in agentic AI systems and their security and implications: trust boundaries, orchestration risk, model-to-tool attack surfaces, and resilient-by-design deployment patterns.
Outside work, I am a sport enthusiast with a passion for basketball and the outdoors, always drawn to new landscapes and open spaces.
