Speaking
Things I like to talk about
Some talks I've already given, and a few topics I'd be happy to bring to a future event.
Past talks
Estrarre informazioni strutturate dalle immagini con Pydantic AI e FastAPI
DevFest Roma 2025
A talk about how the Computer Vision Engineer role is changing with vision-enabled models and multimodal LLMs. It shows how to build a small Pydantic AI and FastAPI service that receives an image, queries a generative model, and returns validated, typed data.
Flying SOLID-ly: Python design principles explained with birds
PyData Roma Capitale x R-Ladies Rome x Rome R Users Group meetup @ INGV
A practical talk about SOLID principles in Python, using birds as a playful way to make software design concepts easier to reason about.
Computer Vision IRL: From Idea to On-Premise Deployment
PyCon Italia 2024
A real-world case study from Immobiliare.it on turning a business need into a deployed image classification service for real estate. The talk covered requirements, dataset creation, model development and optimization, deployment with FastAPI and TorchServe, and production monitoring.
Still on my mind
Topics I keep thinking about, testing, or trying to explain better.
AI tools for coding
How I use AI tools to write, review, debug, and ship code faster without outsourcing judgment.
A practical introduction to ARC-AGI, why it is interesting, and what it tells us about reasoning, abstraction, and current AI limits.
What agents actually are
Introductory talks that cut through the hype: tools, loops, memory, planning, and where agents are useful in real products.
What we are learning while building AI features for game-based learning: product constraints, user value, and boring production details.
Community
I help organize PyData Roma Capitale and enjoy formats where engineering people can share practical work without over-polishing it. Workshops, lightning talks, and cross-community meetups are usually the most fun.
