About me

Overview

I am an archaeologist and digital heritage researcher specialised in the integration of archaeology, landscape studies and advanced digital technologies. I graduated with honours (M.A.) in Topography and Landscape Archaeology from Sapienza University of Rome, where I was awarded as one of the best graduates for the 2018/2019 academic year. During my studies, alongside fieldwork and archaeological research, I developed strong competencies in 3D modelling, digital reconstruction, and 3D printing, driven by the conviction that these technologies can play a key role in rethinking the impact of Cultural Heritage in contemporary society.

Over the past years, my work has focused on the advancement and dissemination of archaeological research through the use of information and communication technologies. I am particularly interested in how methodological innovation can enhance the social, cultural, and public role of heritage and landscapes. In 2024, I obtained a PhD with honours, with the additional title of Doctor Europeaus, from the University of Ferrara, within the doctoral program in Environmental Sustainability and Wellbeing. Since 2024, I have been working as a postdoctoral researcher at the National Research Council of Italy (CNR), first at the Digital Heritage Innovation Lab in Rome and then at the ResLab in Potenza.

In 2026, I was awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship at Lund University to carry out my projectPolyhedraat DarkLab.

Alongside my academic path, I have worked as a freelance professional, collaborating with a range of institutions, companies, artists and cultural organizations on projects related to museum digitization, 3D surveying, digital reconstruction, exhibition design and accessibility. These experiences have allowed me to apply research-oriented methodologies in applied contexts, contributing to the development of digital heritage solutions for both public and private stakeholders. Among the entities I have collaborated with are3D Archeolab, Flyover Zone Production, Fondazione BVLGARI, Archeo di F. Turchetta, Roberto Civetta conservazione e restauro opere d’arte, DF14 Restauro, JDK, Plam StudioandFastal, working across different scales of cultural heritage documentation, conservation and communication.

I aim to work as a cross-sectoral researcher, combining archaeological expertise with digital methodologies, while also promoting accessibility and inclusivity in cultural heritage. I strongly believe that we are currently undergoing a profound technological and cultural shift that will reshape research practices, professional scenarios, and the ways in which heritage is experienced and shared.

In this perspective, the promotion of culture—understood broadly as landscapes, monuments, and local traditions—will play a fundamental role in shaping the future of European society.
