Graduated in Environmental Science and Technology from the University of Bicocca in 2023. The thesis focused on characterizing the carbonaceous and mineral content of Light Absorbing Particles deposited on the snow surface of the Shallap Glacier (Peru), including a modeling study based on back-trajectory analysis. Currently a Ph.D. student in Polar Sciences at Ca' Foscari University since December 2023, in collaboration with the Institute of Polar Sciences in Milan and Venice. The research aims to study the impact of biomass burning emissions and dust uplift on the Arctic atmosphere by analyzing the composition and the optical and microphysical properties of aerosols, integrating this information with the study of their source areas.
