I am a material scientist with several years of experience in the field of metasurfaces, nanophotonics and thin film technology.
As part of my educational and work experience, I had the opportunity to work in different international settings, after completing my undergraduate and master's degree at the University of Padova, I carried out my master's thesis project at the IM2NP (France) and then I moved to the UK for my PhD and a postdoc at the Optoelectronics Research Centre.
I am currently employed as a postdoctoral researcher at the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia in the photonic nanomaterials research line.
