I am a passionate geologist and a nature lover. I initially formed myself as a Field Geologist with a Bachelors degree in Geological Science at the University of Chieti (2018). Thesis: "Geological Survey of the area of Pizzo di Sevo, Cimalepri (M. Gorzano - Amatrice)". I then specialized in Stratigraphy and Sedimentology with a Master degree in Geological Science and Tecnhology at the University of Pisa (2022). Thesis: "Multidisciplinary study of continuos cores drilling in the archeological site of the Roman river harbour of Aquileia (UD): Facies analysis and reconstruction of the stratigraphic-depositional architecture in relation to the development phases of the harbour". This thesis was carried out collaborating with a wide multidisciplinar geo-archeological research team with wich i’m still actively working. I’ve obtained the qualification to practice the geological profession in 2022 and in 2023 i became a PhD student of the Earth Science Department at the University of Pisa and an associate at the Institute of Geosciences and Earth Resources (IGG) of CNR of Pisa. My PhD project is based on a multidisciplinar study of continent-marine transitional environment with a special focus to the Holocenic paleo-environmental evolution of the Venice Lagoon (north-east Italy).
