I undertook my undegraduate course in Chemistry at the University of Parma and I obtained my Bachelor in 2022, under the supervision of Prof. Dalcanale. There, I worked on host-guest interactions, focusing on the study of quinoxaline cavitands for the complexation of perfluorinated micropollutant in aqueous media. In late 2022, I started my Masters degree in Chemistry at the University of Padova, working with self-assembled chromophores. During my master's I was a visiting student at the University of Vienna, where I worked on azaparacyclophanes prepared via catalyst-transfer macrocyclization, under the supervision of Prof. Bonifazi.

I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in Materials Science and Technology, and I work on supramolecular frameworks for solar fuels production. 

I obtained my M.Sc. in Chemistry (UniPd) in 2023. My thesis dealt with the synthesis of metal complexes and catalytic studies. After graduating, I moved to Technical University of Munich for a six-month period granted by Erasmus+ Traineeship. There, I worked on the synthesis of encapsulating metal complexes in the Pöthig research group. In the end of 2023, I enrolled in the PhD programme in Materials Science and Technology (UniPd). 

My interests are mainly focused on 'life'-like supramolecular systems and materials for conversion, storage and use of solar light. Currently, I am working on transient supramolecular polymers.

I earned my M.Sc. degree in Chemistry at the University of Padova in March 2024 with a thesis regarding the application of ultrafast optical spectroscopies for the characterization of materials. After graduating, I was awarded a research fellowship for investigating the photophysical properties of self-assembled organic chromophores. In November 2024 I enrolled in the "Photoinduced Processes and Technologies" PhD Course of National Interest.

My research interests are focused on the preparation of supramolecular frameworks and their employment in photocatalysis

In my free time I like to read books and enjoy listening to music. Other than that, I try to balance between passion for sports and love for food.

I am currently doing a semester abroad as an Erasmus student, focusing on research modules that explore chromophores and their aggregation-induced catalytic properties.

I am currently working on donor-acceptor dyes to perform visible-light photocatalysis. 

I am studying Industrial Chemistry at the University of Padova. In my experimental thesis, I focused on the photocatalytic reduction of acetylene to ethylene using cobalt complexes. Specifically, I worked on identifying organic chromophores as replacements for the inorganic ones currently used in the process, with the goal of enhancing sustainability. 

Outside the lab and classroom, I have a passion for competitive sport fishing. I was Italian individual champion, twice world team vice-champion, and currently, I am part of the reigning world champion team.

I am preparing amphiphilic organic dyes and studying how to control their aggregation state to improve their photocatalytic activity. 

Outside of my academic work, I enjoy staying active through sports and spending time with friends. I am also passionate about Formula 1 and homebrewing.
