I am an Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) in the SustanAI group, ACP Section @ University of Southern Denmark. I earned my European Label Ph.D. in “Computer Science, Control, and Geoinformation” from the University of Rome, Tor Vergata. My research focuses on the intersection of Large Language Models, Software Quality, Software Maintenance, and Software Architecture.
Before transitioning to academia, I was R&D Vice Director at an Italian cybersecurity firm, leading innovation initiatives in secure systems development. I am passionate about teaching and mentoring and actively promote tech literacy, digital inclusion, and community-driven technological empowerment. I strive to bridge the gap between advanced software research and societal impact through my work.
