I am researcher in Environmental Science and Cultural Heritage Conservation, focusing on the deterioration and degradation processes of historic materials (natural stone, mortar etc.) exposed to urban pollution. I primarily work with multi-analytical approaches, combining portable and laboratory techniques (pXRF, FTIR, XRD, SEM-EDX, optical microscopy, and CIE Lab colorimetry) to characterize black crusts, deposits, salts, and mineralogical changes. My interests include developing robust analytical protocols, integrating and interpreting complex datasets, and providing scientific support for conservation/restoration decisions for historic monuments in urban environments.
