The passion for the automotive sector and the unrestrained interest in the technical challenges which are involved, have deeply marked my student career. I focused my career on research to understanding the field of propulsion system technology and, so far, to reciprocating engines. My academic career was marked by "selected" examinations concerning this field. The appearance of new technologies and the related transition to a new era in the world of automotive and propulsion systems are a further stimulus for me to project myself more deeply into innovative and not yet tested topics. I firmly believe that a careful analysis of new technologies and a critical search for possible alternatives are the basis for success in this challenging and exciting phase. In particular, I would be interested in deepening the technological challenges and possibilities of hydrogen-related technologies, such as fuel cells and hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines. The possibility of actively being involved with top-level research groups of the Department in the investigation (both numerical and experimental) of such new possibilities would represent the first (right) step towards a more focused and in-depth knowledge. I'm in the right place, with the right team and the right motivations. I believe these are the keys to success in making what we believe is impossible possible.
