I'm an entrepreneur, engineer, and researcher passionate about achieving impact with AI.
Here on GitHub, I build AI systems and products to solve real-world needs.
I founded xtream and Reaidy, both acquired by TeamSystem in September 2025.
I was an angel investor in Pillar, achieving a 3.3Γ return in nine months, and I'm a pre-seed investor in GoMutuo.
I'm partner and CTO at PFA, a company that provides wellbeing and psychological services to businesses and public organizations.
An engineer by training, I fell in love with AI and Machine Learning during my PhD between the University of Pavia and EPFL. You can find my thesis in this repo and my publications on Google Scholar.
Since then, I've had the privilege of lecturing at several leading institutions:
- Professor of the Practical AI course at the Catholic University of Milan
- Guest Lecturer at the University of Pavia, the Polytechnic of Milan, the Polytechnic of WrocΕaw, EPFL, and HSLU
I love sharing what I learn. Below are some of my favorite sessions. You can find the full list of sessions on Sessionize, even more videos on YouTube, and a list of talks with the related material in this repo. Note that some of the content is in Italian.
During my time at xtream, I hosted the AI Compass podcast with Luca.

Beavers are ugly, definitely not elegant, but smart and hard-working. They transform the environment they live in, creating a positive impact. And they do not get stuck by boureaucracy and politics.
