I'm a computer science student with a deep interest in low-level systems, performance, security, and cryptography. I love exploring algorithms and data structures, building systems from scratch, and diving into low-level programming (yes, I do consider C an art form).
During my internship at Google, I worked on Android Platform Security, designing and building security features across core Android services and digging into critical security-sensitive codebases. Along the way, I had the chance to uncover and patch a security vulnerability, as well as collaborate across different teams to resolve critical infrastructure blockers.
Before that, at Qualcomm, I explored the world of on-device AI, implementing the Whisper architecture in C++ using internal Qualcomm libraries to run directly on Snapdragon NPUs. There, I also co-developed the speech-to-image project, released open source on the official Qualcomm GitHub repository, and helped adapt the pipeline for a robotics platform.
Much of my problem-solving mindset comes from competitive programming and cybersecurity challenges: from the Italian Olympiad in Informatics to the national finals of Olicyber and CyberChallenge.IT, where I fell in love with reverse engineering, cryptography, and thinking under constraints.
In my spare time, I build open-source projects and write notes and proofs on topics that fascinate me. If you're interested in collaborating on something cool or just want to chat, feel free to reach out!
