Bio
I am a PhD in Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies within the National PhD Program ISAS (University of Turin / University of Camerino). My research is carried out jointly at the Department of Computer Science, University of Turin and Links Foundation in Torino.
I work on distributed systems, applied cryptography, and software engineering. Concretely, I design blockchain-based data marketplaces for the energy domain, study DAO governance sustainability through on-chain metrics, and experiment with privacy-preserving techniques like Zero-Knowledge proofs, MPC, and FHE. I also have a growing interest in Layer 2 scaling solutions and the foundational protocol layer of blockchain systems.
In 2024-2025, I spent time as a visiting researcher at Brunel University London.
Outside of research, I organise TEDxSchio, have directed the Startup Grind Padova chapter, and serve as an Ocean Protocol Ambassador.
