Biography

PhD Candidate in Design and Technology. People, Environment, Systems (40th Cycle). Graduated in 2022 with a degree in Architecture for Sustainable Design from Politecnico di Torino. Since 2023, I have been part of the research group in Technological and Environmental Design in Architecture (CEAR-08/C) within the Dipartimento di Architettura e Design (DAD) at Politecnico di Torino.
In 2023, I began my research path with an initial research fellowship titled "Mapping and Characterization of Material Circularity Scenarios," focusing on the analysis of projects and case studies related to material circularity, upcycling technologies, and processes in architecture. I then continued with a second fellowship, "Circular Design: Research and Experimentation in the Architecture Sector," where I explored self-construction practices using construction site waste and by-products from agricultural supply chains.
In 2024, I was awarded a research grant for the project "Digitalization of Mountain Environments, Water Management, and Climate Change Resilience," collaborating with the Dipartimento di Ingegneria dell’Ambiente, del Territorio e delle Infrastrutture (DIATI) at Politecnico di Torino. During the same period, I participated in multi-scale projects focused on the application and study of Nature-Based Solutions.
Alongside my research activities, I have been involved in teaching collaborations in various capacities within the Master’s Degree in Architecture for Sustainability and the Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture.
I also take part in scientific dissemination initiatives, such as “Biennale Tecnologia 2024” and “Notte dei ricercatori 2024”.
