Summary

Originally from Italy, I moved to the United States in 2021 to study marketing and management while also competing in collegiate tennis. I am very passionate about marketing and artificial intelligence, and I like to connect both to create real business growth. I also enjoy coding, which comes from my background in robotics, and now I am studying AI to understand better how it can be used for automation and outreach. In my career, I have managed and launched campaigns on Google Ads, Meta Ads, and LinkedIn, generating strong lead growth and sales results. I also built CRM systems and automations that helped improve customer engagement and efficiency. As co-founder of a start-up focused on technology for people with visual disabilities, I had to learn to do everything from market research to digital campaigns, which gave me strong entrepreneurial skills. My journey shows resilience, adaptability, and a hardworking mentality that I apply in every challenge.
