A quick Intro about me

My name is Giovanni and I am a rising Junior at Harvard studying an A.B. in Statistics + Computer Science and a concurrent S.M. in Computer Science. I am from a small town in southern Italy and graduated from a public high school in the province of Naples, where the high school dropout rate is more than twice the European average.

From a young age, I had to self-learn English and Mathematics, with 70% of my teachers not even having a Bachelor's degree. Then, I fell in love with Computer Science during my Freshman Year at Harvard and went all the way to graduate courses and research. I am also one of the only 10 Harvard College Students selected as a Robert family fellow for potential innovators, being able to study MBA classes. I am a 2 times gold medal in philosophy olympiad and have worked with the Italian parliament in the past

I love game theory, hiking, AI safety, and philosophy.
