About Me

I was born on 26/11/1996 in Florence, Italy. I hold bachelor's and master's degrees in Philosophy from the University of Pisa, where I specialized in logic. Additionally, I completed a Piano Jazz degree at the ISSM "Mascagni" in Livorno, with a thesis on Mal Waldron. I began my PhD in Philosophy, specializing in Logic, at the Scuola Normale Superiore in November 2021, where I am currently pursuing my studies. My main interests are in logic, philosophy of probability, belief revision and relations between logic and music.
