About me

I am an applied mathematician with a longstanding interest in climate change. Before starting my PhD I worked in a consulting company specialized in European research projects dealing with Artificial Intelligence and cybersecurity. I plan to bring my best contribution in exploiting machine learning and data science potential for climate change multi risk assessment and modelling of complex socio-economic and environmental systems.

My research

My research aims at developing machine learning tools to understand the dynamics between multiple risks acting at different scales and their complex chain of cascading effects. I will focus on the Veneto region, analysing how spatial and temporal interactions between multiple hazards and risk factors (e.g. compound wind and precipitation; alternating dry and wet events; vulnerability changes) can affect losses in several socio-economic sectors.
