Summary

I am an enthusiastic researcher who has recently graduated with a PhD degree in Material Science and Technology from Politecnico di Torino. I hold a Master of Physics (Photonics) degree and have dedicated research activity in the field of laser micromachining for material surface functionalization as my core PhD activity. I am specifically interested in using laser surface processing as a tool to generate multifunctional surfaces. Moreover, I wield an interdisciplinary approach and a collaborative mindset to simultaneously learn and apply to enable successful research contributions.
