Biography
Space Systems Engineer with 7+ years of experience in spacecraft architecture, requirements engineering and verification planning across ESA, ASI and NASA-funded programmes. Skilled in MBSE, system-level analysis and multidisciplinary coordination, supporting design reviews. Experienced in guiding complex R&D activities toward risk-balanced solutions for exploration missions and spacecraft development. My objective is to contribute technical leadership to Europe’s next-generation human and robotic exploration programmes and help transform advanced concepts into successful operational missions.
