I have a degree in chemistry from the University of Rome, Italy and a degree in photography from Georgian College in Barrie, Ontario.

Over the years I gained work experience in various fields such as gases, polymers, manufacturing and Investigations. I have organized and managed analytical laboratories. I have been part of accident investigations as well as safety and quality audits.

I have volunteered for several years with the Alliston Scouts both as leader and as part of the group committee. I have also taken part to large scouting events as First Aid volunteer in Ontario.

I am fluent in Italian, French and English.

I enjoy reading printed books of science fiction, history and Asterix. I like to travel and I like to take pictures to transform them digitally. I like golf, pickleball and as much as I can be a fan for the Toronto Maple Leaf and the Blue Jays.
