Personal Interests

As a passionate STEAM student, my interests extend far beyond the academic field. I have a deep appreciation for art and museums, finding inspiration in creativity and cultural expression. Engaging in outdoor activities like skiing not only nurtures my adventurous spirit but also teaches me valuable lessons in discipline and focus. I am fond of dogs, appreciating their loyalty and companionship. Additionally, I have a keen interest in philosophy, finding profound meaning in exploring life's fundamental questions. These diverse passions reflect my holistic approach to learning and life.


Family responsibilities

As the daughter of a single mother, within the framework of a Mediterranean family, I have assumed family responsibilities and experienced the need to be autonomous at an early age. This has given me the opportunity, as the eldest granddaughter, to collaborate in the care of my grandfather during the long illness he suffered, and currently to take care of my grandmother, who is visually impaired, for whom I cook since it is a danger to her.
