Gabriele was born in Lithuania. She completed her undergraduate degree in Chemistry with honours at the University of Manchester. For her thesis, she focused on fostering green chemistry practices within the university’s teaching laboratories and developing sustainable synthetic pathways for electron-rich olefin epoxidation and reductive amination reactions. 
 

In the summer of 2024, she joined Professor Arthur Chan’s research group at the University of Toronto, where she investigated the influence of wildfires on the oxidative potential of urban fine particulate matter (PM2.5).

 

In 2025, Gabriele began her MPhil studies in the Nitschke Group, where her research focuses on designing heteroleptic trigonal prisms constructed from two and three distinct C₂-symmetric face-centred linkers.

 

In her free time, Gabriele enjoys running and spending time outdoors.
