Miscellanea

Here you can find a few things I’m interested in.

Curvilinea, Italian startup for sharing Math to the broadest public possible

Not-Math stuff

Outside the Department schedule, I’m very passionate about singing (alto singer) and sailing.

I’ve been part of the following choirs:

Schola Gregoriana Mediolanensis in Milano (Italy) under the direction of Giovanni Vianini (2009-2010)

Stella Matutina in Bruxelles (Belgium) under the direction of Erik Trekels and Alicia Scarcez (2014-2016)

Concordia University Choir in Montréal (QC) under the direction of Jean-Sébastien Allaire (2011-2014 and 2019-2020)

Dalhousie Collegium Cantorum in Halifax (NS) under the direction of Gary Ewer (2022-ongoing)

I am a member of the sailing school Les Glénans. I hold a “Niveau 3 - Croisière” certificate from the Fédération Française de Voile (August 2019). I am currently training for obtaining the subsequent “Niveau 4 - Croisière” certificate.
Back in Italy, I have a little 470 dinghy that I wish I could use more often...
