About Me

I was born in Italy near Venice on February 23, 2001. Since I was a child I have always had a great passion for computer science and the world of computers. I started writing code when I was 13 years old, developing very simple programs.
I’m passionate about Algorithms and Data Structures and I like to develop clean and efficient code.

Aphorisms

  • The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.

    How charged with punishments the scroll,
    I am the master of my fate,
    I am the captain of my soul.
