Clarissa is a Technical Projects Officer at AcrossLimits, where she is part of the writing team developing EU funding proposals and supporting the implementation of EU-funded projects. With a background in software engineering, she was drawn to AcrossLimits by the chance to explore diverse subjects through research and writing, while contributing to projects that create real impact. Her academic journey has taken her through robotics, artificial intelligence, and the built environment, reflecting her wide-ranging interests and love of learning. She is especially passionate about technology, education, and the environment, but is always eager to take on new challenges.

Outside of work, Clarissa enjoys trail running and rollerskating, as well as travelling (especially for the food!). She loves cooking and experimenting in the kitchen, curling up with a good book, or getting lost in films, music, and podcasts. A naturally curious person, she’s happiest when learning, discovering new perspectives, and finding ways to get better every day. Most of all, she treasures time spent with family and friends, and enjoys connecting with people along the way.
