I am an astrophysicist by training with a strong interest in instrumentation. I have been interested in cosmology and the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) since I was an undergraduate student in Milan, Italy. To follow my passion, I moved for my doctorate to Oxford, UK, and then to Kavli IPMU in Japan, first as an exchange student and then as a postdoc. In 2022 I moved to QUP to focus on the TES detector development for the LiteBIRD space mission.
