Who I Am

About Me

I am an Engineer with 4 years of hands-on experience transforming manufacturing and operational processes through disciplined use of data. My work sits at the intersection of classical engineering methods and modern analytics, combining Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, and process design with Python, SQL, and Power BI to deliver improvements that are both measurable and sustainable.

My professional evolution has taken me from designing custom industrial equipment to spearheading continuous improvement initiatives in complex production environments. By integrating my background in mechanical engineering with advanced analytical tools, I translate complex data into practical solutions that respect shop-floor realities.

Outside of work, I spent 13 years as a competitive track & field athlete, training daily and competing at national level. I reached the podium at national championships in hurdles and relay, and won the regional title in the 200m. It taught me more about consistency and performing under pressure than any classroom ever did.

I am now based in Palm Beach Gardens, FL, and actively seeking roles in Industrial Engineering, Data Science, or Continuous Improvement. I am a US Permanent Resident, fluent in English and Italian, and ready to contribute from day one.
