I am a calm and cheerful person who loves to share work and experiences with friends and colleagues. Technology addicted, inquiring, and never tired of learning. I love sports, video games, reading, films, animals, vintage cars, and fixing stuff. I have a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, a Master's degree in Electrical and Automation Engineering, and a Doctorate in Industrial Engineering from the University of Florence. I am currently working as an Assistant Professor within the Mechatronics and Dynamic Modeling Laboratory (MDM Lab) of the Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Florence, researching and teaching Wearable Robotics.
