Editorial Director: Pietro Ferrari
My name is Pietro Ferrari and I was born and raised in the city of Milan. After three fantastic years in BIG I have decided to continue my Bocconi Journey in Politics and Policy Analysis. My interests span across multiple fields but the one I am most interested in are History, Politics and International Relations. But what still makes me hopeful about the world is traveling, the only thing I consider my real passion, especially when I manage to find the time to write down my thoughts and feelings on the road.
Head of Art Column & Deputy Director: Eleonora Cecchini
When I find something that particularly inspires me, I just write it down. The issue is that I find the whole world particularly inspiring.
BIG student
Writer, but also reader, traveler, philosopher, photographer…it depends on how much free time I have 😉
Head of Events & Deputy Director: Chloe Pia Bavaro
A southern Italian girl whose favorite book all throughout her childhood was called “I want to be a journalist” (and deep down, it’s still my favorite to this day).
I’m currently in BEMACC because I’m in love with arts, and the fundamental importance of culture has always been fascinating to me.
I will never turn down the opportunity to write about anything that catches my interest, even though I have a sweet spot for anything culture – related.
Head of Media: Allegra Cocchi
I’m Allegra, a 1st year PPA MSc Student (and a former BIG student!). I am passionate about writing and photography, trying to hold on to what might otherwise slip away, like details, expressions, and fragments of reality that deserve to be truly seen. I am a huge techno fan and activist … so if you don’t find me in class or studying, it’s because I’m either dancing or advocating for social justice or human rights!
Head of Monday Briefing: Diego de Carvalho
My name is Diego, and I am currently in my 3rd year of BESS. I was born and raised in Brasília, Brazil and although I have lived also in Switzerland, the United States, and now Italy, I consider myself Brazilian and Latin-American by heart. My heart and time are often split by many different interests, including football, history, geopolitics, philosophy, music, and cinema.
Head of Partnerships: Alice di Terlizzi
I am a BIG student, who sees writing both as a passion and as a need. Writing is indeed the ideal combination of the two, since it rises from a personal interest in sharing my own feelings, to the extent that the very fact of translating them into words becomes a necessity. I love to get inspired by the stories of other people, whose different perceptions and ways of approaching their everyday life fosters me to reason about my own, and crystallise my personal opinions into the form of written thoughts.
Head of Strong Words: Nicola Francia
I am a second year BIG student with a keen interest in international affairs and US politics, especially in its recent polarization fueled by culture wars and identitarian claims. (Mis)quoting Goodfellas, I’d say that “as far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a writer” and here at Tra i leoniI will take make the most of any opportunity to do what I love the most. If I didn’t, I’d have to live the rest of my life like a schnook.
Web Manager: Aura Baroli
Hi, I’m Aura. I’m a second-year student of International Politics and Government and I’m originally from Turin. I am also transgender person. My identity has shaped my whole life, and it has given me a unique perspective, especially when it comes to talking about the experience of minorities. Over the years, writing has allowed me to spread facts and ideas on all the topics I’m passionate about.
