Education and training: scientific biography.

When I made the decision to attend University, I was having my first work experience abroad, in the Disney park in Paris. I reluctantly left that context, strong in the belief that study was a decisive element in the formation of personality.

My adventure in Communication began in Torino and ended in Siena. Although the two cities are very different, meeting these realities has given me a lot. The typical features and characteristics of the small town and the industrial metropolis have helped to build my character.

My ambitions led me to want to cross the threshold of a big city. Although my wish at the time was to land in Roma, the vicissitudes of life brought me to Milano. The ferment of the Italian city that never sleeps has left an incisive memory.

During my PhD, my encounter with Education. The study of Media Education opened up new horizons for me on how multimedia communication could be revealed, getting to know its recipients more deeply. In this same period, I attended the first training courses in a more strictly digital field.

The Master's Degree in Counseling, which I faced as a development of the path undertaken in the Education sector, definitely surprised me in its psychological dimension. The investigation of the psyche has always fascinated me, but living the experience on one's skin was revealing.

My passion for the Middle East and for my mother tongue, and more concrete interests, such as the effective integration of migrants and respect for women's rights, have found their answer in the Master's Degree in Italian Language. Here I was fascinated by the different socio-cultural approaches to the language, while the internship experiences allowed me to better understand the complexity of interpersonal relationships.
