About

Professional summary

I am a Legal Studies master’s student at the University of Bologna with academic and practical experience in legal research, commercial contracts, compliance documentation, and corporate governance.

I have supported legal and compliance teams through document drafting, document review, legal analysis, and regulatory research. My previous roles in a hospital legal affairs function and law firms gave me exposure to commercial, corporate, and financial regulatory matters.

My academic interests focus on EU digital regulation, data protection, AI governance, consumer protection, and the legal implications of emerging technologies. My current thesis examines AI-generated evidence under the EU AI Act, with emphasis on explainability, human oversight, and transparency.

I also participated in the JuriGraph legal technology project, where I collaborated on an AI-assisted platform for multilingual legal information retrieval and case-law analysis. This experience strengthened my interest in hybrid search and knowledge graph applications for legal work.

I have passed the Chinese National Legal Professional Qualification Examination and bring an international perspective shaped by studies in China, Italy, and Finland. I am seeking a junior legal, compliance, privacy, or regulatory affairs role in Italy.
