Education
B.Sc. in Chemistry
Sep 2022 — PresentUniversity of Milan (Università degli Studi di Milano)
Coursework in organic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, and spectroscopic methods. Building a strong foundation in laboratory techniques and molecular analysis.
Research Interests
Organic Chemistry
Interested in reaction mechanisms, stereochemistry, and synthetic strategies. Enjoys solving retrosynthetic puzzles and understanding how molecular structure drives reactivity.
Spectrophotometry Methods
Fascinated by UV-Vis, IR, and fluorescence spectroscopy as tools for molecular characterization. Exploring how absorption and emission data reveal structural and electronic information.
Biochemistry
