My academic background includes a bachelor’s degree in Agricultural Sciences and a master’s degree in Agro-food Production and Agro-ecosystems Management from University of Pisa.
During my studies I had the opportunity to explore the economic and political aspect of agriculture with an internship at an agro-technical office and with a scholarship at the University of Pisa. During my internship I mainly studied the Rural Development Programme of Tuscany. By the scholarship, I instead focused on European and national regulations related to soil health. In April 2023, following graduation, I joined the Department of Agriculture, Food and Environment at the University of Pisa as a research fellow, where I am currently working on the NOVASOIL project.
