Welcome to my personal portfolio! I’m a Master’s in Cultural Anthropology and Ethnology from Università degli Studi di Torino with a passion for Football – or Soccer if you prefer – data analysis.

About Me

I have experience in data analysis with Python that I showcase in my newsletter. This expertise led to a freelance opportunity at DAZN Italy as a data editor, where I used Excel and Opta Pressbox as primary tools to gave Pre, Live and Post match analytics support to all of the broadcasting team of the productions I worked on.

Skills

• Python for data analysis
• Football/Soccer analytics
• Strong research methodology from academic training (BA in History, MA in Cultural Anthropology)
• Clear communication and exposition of complex findings
