About
I am an international scholar from Italy. I moved to the United States when I was twenty-four years old. Ever since, I have been researching the diasporic patterns and the migratory cultural production of both Italy—my home country—and the Latin American Southern Cone—particularly Argentina. I am specialized in Italian and Latin American Literature and Visual Arts with an interdisciplinary interest in the fields of Environmental Humanities and Migration/Diasporic Studies. I have a Ph.D. from the University of Virginia (2020), and I have recently collaborated with Columbia University and the University of Manchester as Research Fellow. People and art are my personal and professional passion. Education
