I spent my post graduate years working in the Compliance Department in a major European Banking Group, where I worked side by side with the Legal Department. I studied Banking Regulation and obtained a Master in International business in Italy. That allowed me to work across both managerial and legal department thanks to my early focus on Banking Regulation and Supervision. My bachelor's dissertation in Finance & Banking was mainly focused on the legal aspect of the financial institutions supervision. Thanks to my interest in law, for the past 2 years I have been working as paralegal in California with Bolimini International Law Firm, specializing in Cryptocurrency, Digital Assets, Metaverse law and regulation, business formation, contractual law and IP law. In my free time I ride horses in 160 km (100 miles) competitions. The sport taught me to be humble, patient and focused at any given time. A mistake will be costly. I also like to sail in regattas to balance out the independence of the horse riding sport, with a sport that requires good communication and teamwork. Patience here is a plus as well. I dedicate my little extra time being on the board of the Buccaneer Yacht Club, a California non-profit, as secretary. As such I draft and review Board agendas, resolutions, minutes and other Board meeting items.
