About me
I hold a graduate degree in Political Sciences and International Relations, and a Master's in Business Administration and European Studies. With a strong background in consultancy and fundraising, I bring a wealth of international experience in managing innovation-driven projects, particularly within the agri-food ecosystem.
Currently, I lead international projects at the Agri-Food Innovation Cluster of Apulia, where I support cross-border cooperation and sustainable growth in the agri-food sector. I am also part of the coordination team of the Agri-Food and Bioeconomy Topic Group within ADRA, the European association promoting AI, data, and robotics for a greener and more efficient food system.
My work includes coordinating projects on water management, digital innovation, and cluster collaboration, including the management of cascade funding calls for SMEs under European programmes.
I thrive in dynamic, international environments and am known for being proactive, adaptable, and meticulous. I am particularly interested in how emerging technologies – including blockchain – can drive transparency and sustainability in the agri-food and bioeconomy sectors.
