Born in Siena in 1993, I grew up with a strong passion for electronics and computers, which eventually led me to the field of engineering. In 2016, I obtained a bachelor's degree in Management Engineering from the University of Siena, defending a thesis on the development of a low-power and low-cost device for monitoring sea waves. This experience inspired me to shift my focus to Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, in which I earned a master's degree in 2020 from the University of Siena. My master's thesis involved developing an integrated device for monitoring freight containers using LPWAN technologies. During my PhD, I concentrated on developing Industrial IoT devices for environmental monitoring in harsh environments. I am currently working as a technician at Alta Industries in Florence, and I am expected to defend my PhD thesis by September 2024
Industrial Internet of Things, Low Power Wide Area Networks, Electrical and Electronic Measurements.
My research focuses on the development of IoT devices for monitoring purposes, specifically in the environmental and industrial scenarios. During my PhD, I collaborated with Alta Industries in Florence, providing technological support for technology transfer and innovation. Additionally, I spent six months at the Institute of Sensor and Actuator Technology (ISAT) research centre at Coburg University in Coburg, Germany. There, I studied and developed a low-power standalone device for underground soil movement monitoring. My goal is to provide technological support for environmental monitoring, particularly in relation to climate change and predictive maintenance.
I collaborated with the University College Dublin and the Atlantic Technological University Sligo to study coastal erosion using wireless devices and 3D scanning techniques.
