Graduation Open University - BSc in Computing and IT

On Saturday 28 March 2026 I attended the graduation ceremony of the Open University at the Barbican Centre in London, an absolutely brilliant event and a memorable way to celebrate with my biggest supporters the conclusion of an eight-year journey studying part-time towards a BSc in Computing and IT. I have always enjoyed learning, ever since I was a child, and that curiosity helped me through the many assignments, deadlines, and eventually a thesis on data analysis in diplomacy and gender. What I learned during these years is already proving useful in my work. And who knows, perhaps computational cultural diplomacy might one day become a discipline in its own right. For now, I am simply grateful for the journey… and already thinking about the next study objective for the coming years.
