I am an engineer and researcher in computer vision, currently working as a Data Scientist at Verizon Connect. I develop and mantain machine learning models for road scene understanding from image, video and telematics from dashcams. My research interests are mainly in 3D computer vision and video and scene understanding.

I hold a PhD in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Bologna (graduated in March 2026), a MSc in Computer Vision from the Universities of A Coruña, Santiago de Compostela, Vigo and Porto and a BSc in Automation Engineering from the University of Vigo.

I am originally from Santiago de Compostela, Spain but I am currently based in Florence, Italy.
