# Research

After obtaining a bachelor degree in Trento in 2016 I have completed the
[ALGANT](https://algant.eu) Master Program (Milano and Leiden), with special
focus on number theory and algebraic geometry. I am now working on my PhD
under the supervision of [Antonella Perucca](http://antonellaperucca.net) and
[Peter Bruin](https://www.math.leidenuniv.nl/~pbruin).
