I studied physics at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia (Italy), where in 2018 I also completed my PhD in Physics and Nanosciences with a research activity focused on the fabrication and characterization of magnetic single-molecule transistors with graphene electrodes for spintronic applications. I also spent two years at the Néel Institute (Grenoble, France) as a visiting PhD student. In 2019 I joined Silicon Austria Labs GmbH, where I am currently employed as Senior Scientist with focus on the experimental development of magnetic sensor systems and the microfabrication of MEMS, magnetic thin films and magnetoresistive devices.
