I'm Tommaso, a Data Science student at Ca' Foscari University in Venice and a Software Developer at Isoft Srl.

I got into programming back in high school by making games in Unity. That's where I learned C# and realized how much I enjoy coding.

These days I'm deep into machine learning, especially NLP. I like understanding not just how models work, but why they work, so I tend to care a lot about the math, experimentation, and building things end-to-end.

(⭐ indicate project complexity and proudness)

Transformer from Scratch ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Building a text summarization model with TensorFlow and Python from the ground up. Still a work in progress, but learning a ton about attention mechanisms and transformer architecture.

Christmas Story Generator ⭐⭐ - Streamlit web app that creates cozy Christmas storybooks for kids using Groq + Datapizza LLMs for text and PyTorch + diffusers (SDXL) for one illustration per scene, with a full local end‑to‑end pipeline (story, images, PDF).

JobFitIndex ⭐⭐ - AI-native anti-portfolio built with Python, Streamlit, SQLite and OpenRouter LLMs. Developed in a 48-hour Cosmico hackathon, it runs structured AI interviews, scores candidates on five criteria, and exports narrative Markdown anti-portfolios.

C++ Tokenizer ⭐⭐ - Small tokenizer supporting word-level and BPE tokenization, written in C++ and usable in Python via PyPI.

Ant Colony Optimization Simulator ⭐⭐⭐ - Interactive swarm intelligence ACO simulation in Unity using C#, where ant agents find optimal paths between food sources using pheromone-based communication and dynamic pathfinding.

Data Web Mining Project ⭐⭐ - End-to-end data science project in Python using Scikit-learn, with classic data cleaning, exploration, and predictive modeling (Random Forest and XGBoost).

TikTok Ban - Social Network Analysis ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Analyzed Reddit discussions about the TikTok ban with Python, Pandas, NetworkX and VADER for sentiment analysis. Fully manual project with no AI assistance, and first deep dive into social network analysis and NLP.

Procedural Tilemap Generator ⭐⭐⭐ - Generates 2D tilemaps in Unity with C#, combining Wave Function Collapse and Markov Chains for procedural content generation.

Soul Hunter ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Top-down shooter made in Unity with C#, a long-term personal project that took many hours of work to complete. Free to play on itch.io if you want to check it out.

Bachelor's Degree in Data Science - Ca' Foscari University, Venice (2022 - 2026) - Specialized in programming, mathematics, data analysis, and artificial intelligence.

High School Diploma in IT and Communication - I.I.S. Einaudi-Scarpa, Montebelluna (2017 - 2022) - Technical institute where I built a foundation in programming, algorithm design, database management, and computer security. This is where I started my coding journey with Unity and game development.

You'll probably find me taking photos of the night sky, playing around with freestyle football tricks, or planning my next trip somewhere.

I love cooking and eating food from all over the world. My music taste ranges from country to K-pop and purely depends on my mood.

I like a good whisky with an occasional cigar, and yes, I'm that guy who enjoys wearing a suit even when it's not required.

I also spent a few years as a football referee and working as a waiter, learned a lot about staying calm under pressure and dealing with people!
