Hometown: Matera, Italy

Current City: Washington, DC

Why did you choose McCourt? McCourt Schools has definitively caught my attention: the Master in Public Policy meets my needs and expectations. In addition, the school is in Washington DC – the Capital of modern democracy and hub of very important decision-making bodies in Western society. And at Georgetown there is also a sheer number of student societies and initiatives. All these characteristics have intrigued me so much so that I have decided to apply for this program.

What has been the best part of your experience so far? Meeting students from all over the world, with so many different backgrounds. Attend classes with great professors.

Undergraduate University, degree, and major: Università degli Studi di Torino, Economics and Statistics for Organizations

Hobbies/ Interests: I love hiking, cooking and taking pictures all around the city.
