Bio

As a first-generation student, I have always relied on my problem-solving skills and determination. I am currently working towards my bachelor's degree in management engineering, balancing full-time work with limited class time due to the pandemic. Despite these challenges, I completed nine exams in just one month to stay on track for my three-year degree goal. In the past 11 months, I have passed a total of 17 exams, a significant accomplishment considering the typical academic year workload. Only 30% of engineering students graduate with a bachelor's degree, and just 5% work full-time during college. My success is even more notable given these statistics. I recently secured a position at Deloitte and gained admission to Fordham University's business school. Almost two years ago, my life underwent a dramatic transformation. I fell in love, but our relationship faced challenges as we met while traveling through Europe and she is from New York while I am from Milan. From that moment on, we started to build a future together. Since I started this journey I have noticed a remarkable change in the people around me. They have begun to believe in their own dreams, taking proactive steps such as sending out resumes to secure better jobs or embarking on journeys around the world to find their place in it. This realization brings me immense satisfaction, knowing that I have served as an inspiration to individuals who, like me, refuse to settle for mediocrity. They are driven to push themselves and work towards a brighter future and a better life.

    Almost two years ago, my life underwent a dramatic transformation. I fell in love, but our relationship faced challenges as we met while traveling through Europe and she is from New York while I am from Milan. Throughout my global travels, I have had the incredible opportunity to immerse myself in a multitude of cultures and engage with individuals from all walks of life. In each new destination, I have eagerly sought out authentic experiences, eager to learn about the unique traditions and practices that shape the lives of the locals. These encounters have not only allowed me to appreciate the richness of different cultures, but they have also challenged my own preconceived notions and expanded my understanding of the world. Through conversations with individuals from diverse backgrounds, I have gained insights into their beliefs, values, and ways of life, which have often differed greatly from my own. These interactions have fostered a deep sense of empathy and respect for the multitude of perspectives that exist in our global community. Moreover, my experiences have highlighted the interconnectedness of our world. Despite the apparent differences in customs and ideologies, I have discovered common threads that bind us all together as human beings. Whether it is the universal desire for love and connection, the importance of family and community, or the pursuit of happiness and fulfillment, I have found that these fundamental aspirations transcend cultural boundaries. In a world that is becoming increasingly interconnected, it is crucial to embrace and celebrate our differences. By engaging with individuals from diverse backgrounds, we can break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and foster a more inclusive and understanding society. Through my global travels, I have come to appreciate the beauty of cultural diversity and the transformative power of cross-cultural interactions. It is through these encounters that we can truly learn, grow, and create a more harmonious world. From that moment on, we embarked on a journey to build a future together. Throughout this process, I discovered that the aspects of myself I believed to be strong were even more resilient than I had imagined. I have achieved multiple accomplishment against all the odds of almost everyone that was surrounding me, following a dream and fighting for it every single day, every single hour. Since I started this journey I have noticed a remarkable change in the people around me. They have begun to believe in their own dreams, taking proactive steps such as sending out resumes to secure better jobs or embarking on journeys around the world to find their place in it. This realization brings me immense satisfaction, knowing that I have served as an inspiration to individuals who, like me, refuse to settle for mediocrity. They are driven to push themselves and work towards a brighter future and a better life.

My attention for cancer care is likely deeply rooted in a desire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by this challenging disease, desire born in having experiences in family with this illness. My empathy for individuals battling cancer drives your commitment to providing them with the best possible care and support. Witnessing the physical, emotional, and psychological toll of cancer on patients and their loved ones likely fuels my compassion and motivates me to contribute to their well-being.

The attention to cancer care extend beyond medical treatment to encompass a holistic approach that addresses the multidimensional needs of patients and their families. This include psychosocial support, palliative care, survivorship programs, and initiatives to promote wellness and resilience throughout the cancer journey.

They are driven to push themselves and work towards a brighter future and a better life. Among my achievements, I want to highlight one that I attained during my boxing career. I had started boxing just a few months prior, and my trainer and I joined an affiliated gym where the reigning world champion of WFC trained. During one of the training sessions, they asked me to spar with the champion for one round, and it didn't go well for me. I was completely beat up. However, I never lost my motivation and determination. I continued to train regularly and stay dedicated. After two years, the day of the championship competition finally arrived. I had qualified for the elimination tournament for the world title in WFC, which is the largest non-professional boxing federation in Italy. The competition began and I kept winning match after match until I reached the final. Ironically, my opponent in the final was the same guy who had defeated me in that gym two years ago. The final match was intense and filled with back-and-forth exchanges of points. But during the last round, I managed to corner him and deliver one of my best combinations, securing me the victory. My future projects are influenced by the fact that I am deeply concerned about climate change, especially since I come from Milan, a city recently labeled as one of the most polluted in the world. My family and I are already taking steps to combat this issue by using solar panels and driving electric vehicles. I have had a great admiration for Elon Musk since he was much less known and Tesla Motors was at its very beginning. The more people I can convince to join the EV mindset, the more effective and efficient our message will be in spreading awareness. My dream and goal is to found a company that make international flights cheaper, sustainable and efficient, making easier for the people to access other world areas and pushing the understanding that all the cultures and people are not so different as usually is thought.

    My sibling is not just a family member, but a true friend and confidante. We have shared countless laughs, tears, and experiences that have shaped us into the individuals we are today. Their presence in my life has been a constant source of comfort and reassurance, and the thought of facing the world without them by my side is a daunting one. The bond between siblings is a unique and special one, built on a foundation of love, trust, and understanding. We have weathered storms together, celebrated victories, and navigated the ups and downs of life as a team. The thought of losing that connection is heartbreaking, but I know that the memories we have created together will live on in my heart forever. In times of hardship and struggle, my sibling has always been there to offer a listening ear, a shoulder to lean on, and a hand to hold. Their unwavering support and unwavering belief in me have given me the strength to face challenges head-on and overcome obstacles with courage and resilience, even when the odds where definitely against me my sibling always pushed me to do the best allowing me to achieve the desired results. While the pain of losing my sibling may never fully heal, I take solace in the knowledge that their love and presence will always be a part of me. I will carry their memory with me always, drawing strength and inspiration from the bond we shared and the lessons they taught me about love, loyalty, and the true meaning of family.

    Witnessing the effects of mental illness on a loved one has left an indelible mark on my soul. I can still vividly recall the days when their laughter filled the room, their infectious energy lighting up any gathering. But as the grip of mental illness tightened its hold, their vibrant personality slowly faded away, leaving behind a mere shadow of the person they once were. It was a painful journey to witness their transformation. The confusion that clouded their once sharp mind was agonizing to witness. Simple tasks became insurmountable challenges, and the relationships they once cherished became strained and distant. Their spirit, once resilient and full of life, was now overshadowed by a deep sense of despair. We, as a family, rallied around them, offering unwavering support and care. We sought out the best medical professionals, hoping for a breakthrough that would release them from the clutches of this merciless illness. But despite our tireless efforts, the grip of mental illness proved to be unyielding, refusing to loosen its hold. And then, the unthinkable happened. Their untimely passing shattered our hearts into a million pieces. The weight of grief and loss was suffocating, as we mourned not only the physical loss of our loved one but also the loss of the person they once were. It was a devastating reminder of the destructive power of mental illness and its ability to steal away even the most vibrant souls. In the aftermath of this tragedy, I have come to understand the importance of mental health awareness. The stigma surrounding mental illness must be shattered, and conversations about mental health need to be normalized. We must strive to create a society where seeking help for mental health issues is seen as a sign of strength, not weakness. Compassion and understanding are crucial in supporting those who are suffering. We must learn to listen without judgment, to offer a helping hand without hesitation. Mental illness is not a choice, and those who battle it deserve our empathy and support. I carry the memory of my loved one with me every day, a constant reminder of the fragility of the human mind. Their struggle has taught me the importance of seeking help and support when needed, and the significance of taking care of our mental well-being. Their legacy lives on through my commitment to raising awareness, advocating for mental health, and ensuring that no one feels alone in their battle against mental illness. In their memory, I vow to be a beacon of hope and understanding, to be a voice for those who are silenced by their own minds. Together,

    Bookshelf to Big Screen Scholarship
    "Dune," holds a special place in the hearts of many fans, myself included, due to its intricately crafted universe, complex characters, and profound themes. As a lover of science fiction and fantasy, I have always been captivated by the epic scope and intricate storytelling of "Dune" in both its literary and cinematic forms. The book-to-film adaptation of "Dune" brings a unique magic to the big screen, allowing us to witness the world of Arrakis come to life in a visually stunning way. Director Denis Villeneuve's interpretation of Frank Herbert's masterpiece is a testament to his vision and respect for the source material. The film not only captures the essence of the novel but also adds its own cinematic flair, immersing audiences in the vast deserts of Arrakis, the intricate politics of the Imperium, and the enigmatic power of the spice. "Dune" by Frank Herbert, the adaptation can elevate the visuals by showcasing the expansive and intricate world that the author has created. The film can transport the audience to the desolate desert planet of Arrakis, with its towering sand dunes, vast landscapes, and unique creatures. The visual effects and cinematography can capture the grandeur and beauty of Herbert's world, immersing the audience in a visually stunning experience that adds depth and richness to the story. Furthermore, an adaptation can introduce a fresh perspective to the story. While reading the book, the reader is limited to the characters' inner thoughts and motivations, as conveyed through the author's words. However, in the film adaptation, the audience can witness the characters' emotions, expressions, and interactions firsthand. This visual medium allows for a deeper understanding of the characters' complexities and adds a layer of depth to their development. To be considered also the performances of the actors in the adaptation can bring a new dimension to the characters. Seeing the characters that one has envisioned while reading the book come to life on screen can be an exciting and gratifying experience. The actors' interpretations and portrayals can add nuances and subtleties to the characters, making them even more compelling and relatable. The adaptation sparks discussions and comparisons between the book and the film, allowing fans to delve into the differences in interpretation and storytelling choices. This dialogue between mediums enriches the overall experience and fosters a deeper appreciation for both the written and visual aspects of "Dune." The "Dune" adaptation is special to me because it not only pays homage to the beloved source material but also expands upon it, creating a cinematic masterpiece that enriches the world of Arrakis and invites audiences to embark on an unforgettable journey.

One of the greatest challenges I faced in achieving my current success was completing my bachelor's degree in management engineering.

Throughout this process, I discovered that the aspects of myself I believed to be strong were even more resilient than I had imagined. I have achieved multiple accomplishment against all the odds of almost everyone that was surrounding me, following a dream and fighting for it every single day, every single hour. Since I started this journey I have noticed a remarkable change in the people around me. They have begun to believe in their own dreams, taking proactive steps such as sending out resumes to secure better jobs or embarking on journeys around the world to find their place in it.

    I am a first-generation student and during my life i have consistently relied on my own abilities and problem-solving skills since a young age. One of the greatest challenges I faced in achieving my current success was completing my bachelor's degree in management engineering. Despite starting my studies during the COVID-19 pandemic, I worked full-time for the majority of the course duration to ensure financial independence, resulting in limited time for attending classes. To complete my degree within the intended three-year timeframe, I dedicated myself to passing the remaining exams by successfully completing nine exams in just one month. Throughout the last 11 months of college, I managed to pass a total of 17 exams. Considering that an academic year typically consists of eight exams and only half of the students are able to complete them on time, the fact that only 30% of engineering students graduate with a bachelor's degree and only 5% of them have a full-time job during college, highlights the significance of my accomplishment. Furthermore, during the final months of my college journey, I secured a position at Deloitte and gained admission to the prestigious business school at Fordham University. Almost two years ago, my life underwent a dramatic transformation. I fell in love, but our relationship faced challenges as we met while traveling through Europe and she is from New York while I am from Milan. From that moment on, we embarked on a journey to build a future together. Throughout this process, I discovered that the aspects of myself I believed to be strong were even more resilient than I had imagined. I have achieved multiple accomplishment against all the odds of almost everyone that was surrounding me, following a dream and fighting for it every single day, every single hour. Since I started this journey I have noticed a remarkable change in the people around me. They have begun to believe in their own dreams, taking proactive steps such as sending out resumes to secure better jobs or embarking on journeys around the world to find their place in it. This realization brings me immense satisfaction, knowing that I have served as an inspiration to individuals who, like me, refuse to settle for mediocrity. They are driven to push themselves and work towards a brighter future and a better life. My biggest dream and goal is to found a company that makes international travels more efficient, cheap and sustainable. In doing so, the company would improve the knowledge of the various cultures of the world and increase the understanding that all humans are the same and all the people from all over the world are much more similar than what people usually think of. I am considering financing my education through student loan plans in both the United States and Italy. Unfortunately, I do not have sufficient funds from my relatives, and my own finances are not enough. I highly value heavy metal music not only for its musical talent but also for the strong sense of community and camaraderie it fosters. The metal community is unparalleled in its inclusivity and acceptance, bringing together fans from all walks of life to celebrate their shared love for the genre. Additionally, heavy metal serves as a powerful means of self-expression and catharsis. Its themes of rebellion, angst, and defiance deeply resonate with listeners who may feel marginalized or misunderstood by mainstream society. Through the raw energy of the music, fans are able to channel their emotions and find solace in the passionate world of heavy metal.
