After receiving her bachelor's degree in Geology at the University of Trieste and her master's degree in Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Innsbruck, she completed a PhD in Earth Science and Fluid Mechanics at the University of Trieste and the Abdus Salam International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), where she carried out her research activity about paleoclimatic modeling until December 2021.
She is currently a research fellow for the "CryoKarst FVG - Cryosphere in the Karstic environments of Friuli-Venezia Giulia" project at the Institute of Polar Sciences of the CNR (CNR-ISP), at the Science-Park Area - Basovizza, Trieste.
Her project focuses on monitoring the external and hypogeal cryosphere in karst and alpine environments which are investigated under a climatic, paleoclimatic and geomorphological perspective by the mean of glaciological surveys and geophysical, 3D and modeling approaches. As part of her research activity, she is also interested in the climate-cryosphere interactions in the Alpine region from the LGM to the present days. She applies a modeling approach based on the reconstruction of the environmental ELA and the main atmospheric circulation patterns. She participated in a scientific expedition in the Himalayas (Nepal) and several glaciological campaigns in the central and eastern Alps.
