About

👋🏻

Hi! I'm Gianluca, a 3rd year Computer Engineering student at the Polytechnic University of Milan.

📚

Being very passionate about technology and innovation, I thrive on continuously expanding my knowledge. My studies have provided me with strong foundations in engineering, computer science, mathematics and electronics.

💡

Being in contact with passionate professionals has inspired me to dive deeper into CS topics, while also keeping myself open to the world of Business and Management. Beyond technology, I am deeply interested in science in general and other curious topics; this is why I always try to stay up-to-date with new innovations and discoveries.

🎯

Looking ahead, I'm next to complete my Bachelor's Degree, after which I'm going to pursue a Master's Degree in Computer Engineering at PoliMi, with a focus on ICT, Business and Innovation.
