About me

I’m a Civil Hydraulic Engineer, graduated at Politecnico di Milano on April 2022.  In past, I also worked in an environmental consulting company. I started the  SDC-PhD in fulfilment in Politecnico (Civil and Environmental Department). I studied hitherto climate change impact upon hydrology in Alpine regions and  fallout thereby upon vegetation and pasture systems dynamics. My PhD covers Urban-Water-Food-Energy nexus under global and climate change.

My research

My  research program consists in the analysis of Water-Food-Energy nexus at urban  scale in response of climate change scenarios. Research activity, and methods adopted will include: i) key literature  research; ii) choice of representative big cities as case study;  iii)water-energy balance model implementation; iv) future projections  according to IPCC AR6 scenarios and v) assessment of mitigation strategies  and support for stakeholders.
