👨🏻‍💻 About Me

Riccardo Prosdocimi

I hold a Master of Science in Computer Science from Northeastern University in Boston, MA. Despite my academic journey beginning in the realm of business, where I earned a Marketing degree and a certification in Business Analytics from Minnesota State University Mankato as well as completed the Honors program, I have embraced a profound transition, or rather, an augmentation of my skills. The catalyst for this evolution, as I prefer to perceive it, was the transformative effect of the pandemic on the intersection of technology and business. The once-distinct realms of computers and algorithms and organizational operations have melded, prompting me to immerse myself deeply in computer science. My aspiration is to cultivate a comprehensive understanding that enables me to navigate this evolving landscape with efficacy and expertise. I firmly believe that fluency in both business and technology constitutes a formidable combination, capable of yielding remarkable outcomes.

Originally from Italy, I am fluent in both English and Italian. Prior to my collegiate pursuits, I attended a scientific high school, where my studies revolved primarily around mathematics, physics, biology, and chemistry. Athletics has always been a significant part of my life; I dedicated 13 years to competitive basketball and remain an avid fan. Beyond sports, I harbor a passion for exploration, having traversed 5 continents and explored 37 states across the United States. Additionally, I possess a keen interest in technology, sneakers, cars, and American football.
