Eugenia Geddes Da Filicaia

Class of 2008 University of Bristol and National Gallery

Eugenia was at the International School of Florence for a long time  and she made friends from all corners of the world. She is still friends with lots of these people and it feels that it made her grow as a person in a broader way than if she had been somewhere without as much cultural exchange.

Eugenia studied at the University of Sussex, The Courtauld Institute of Art, and obtained her Phd in Chemistry at the University of Bristol and National Gallery.

She is currently working on a Fellowship in Scientific Research at the Art Institute of Chicago.
