Pietro Boselli (born March 12, 1988) is an Italian model and former mathematics lecturer at University College London.
Biography[]
Boselli was discovered at the age of six by a local scout and began modelling for Armani Junior. He later went on to study mechanical engineering at University College London, graduating with a first class Bachelor of Engineering degree in 2010 and then a Doctorate of Philosophy in 2014. During his final year of his PhD studies, Boselli taught undergraduate mathematics to mechanical engineering students. In January 2014, a student took note of his physique and stumbled upon his modelling career; the subsequent Facebook post went viral a year later. After the viral post, Boselli signed with the British modelling agency Models 1. He has since been dubbed the “world’s sexiest maths teacher”.
Boselli has been seen in American modelling campaigns for clothing retailer Abercrombie & Fitch and fitness club Equinox. He has also appeared in spreads for Chinese magazine GQ Style and was featured on the cover of Attitude. Boselli has spoken about his experience with sexual objectification, the negative effect this has had on his academic career, sexual assaults by women and corresponding unfair treatments because of gender.
