A quick snapshot of the work behind this site.
Featured Projects
Manzoni AI
A LoRA fine-tuning of Gemma 3 4B IT that translates modern Italian into the literary style of Alessandro Manzoni, built on a custom parallel dataset distilled from I Promessi Sposi.
High-Performance Simulation of High Energy Particle Storms
Hybrid MPI+OpenMP and CUDA implementations of a 1D particle storm energy deposition and thermal diffusion simulation, achieving up to 1242× (CUDA) and 21× (MPI+OpenMP) speedup over a sequential baseline.
Gender Bias in Movie Ratings
Statistical analysis of how voter gender influences average movie ratings depending on the gender of the film's lead star, using MovieLens 32M and IMDb datasets with network analysis and geographic segmentation.

Does Star Gender Affect How Audiences Rate Films?
A statistical investigation into gender bias in movie ratings using MovieLens 32M, IMDb data, a custom star-identification heuristic, and Cohen's d effect size measurement.
Fine-Tuning a Language Model to Write Like Manzoni
How I built a custom parallel dataset through distillation and adapted Gemma 3 4B to perform literary style transfer in nineteenth-century Italian prose.
Parallelizing a Physics Simulation: CUDA vs. MPI+OpenMP
How I implemented the same 1D particle storm simulation three ways — hybrid MPI+OpenMP and CUDA — and what each architecture taught me about parallel performance.
