Studies

I studied at the technical institute "Leonardo da Vinci" in Florence, from 1987 to 1992, where I attended courses on telecommunications, electronics, electrical an electronical measurements. I got the diploma in telecommunications in 1992 with a mark of 60/60.
I studied physics at the Florence University from 1992 to 2000. In particular I specialized in particle physics. I took the degree in July 2000, with a mark of 110/110. The title of the degree thesis is " Search for resonances in e-p collisions with ZEUS detector at HERA".

I got a grant from the medical centre " Fondazione pro juvenute don Carlo Gnocchi", located in Pozzolatico (Florence), from 1992 to 1994, and I worked in a laboratory of gait analysis. I worked on data acquisition and processing.
In 1998 I was summer student at DESY Hamburg (Germany), were I worked in the exotic group (lately renamed High-Q²) of the ZEUS collaboration.
From November 2000 until october 2003, I was a Ph.D. student at Padua University. In december 2003 I defended my Ph.D. Thesis: "Search for multi-lepton events with the ZEUS detector at HERA" and "VCMVD: an algorithm for MVD tracking at TLT"
From August 2003 to November 2007 I was Post Doc at Padova University, working on the muon detector of the CMS experiment at CERN.
From November 2007 to November 2010 I have been a DESY Fellow. I worked both for the ZEUS (search for multi-lepton events, Monte Carlo production) and the CMS (tracker alignment) experiments.
From November 2010 to March 2012 I have been a member of the FS-EC (Experiment Control) group, in the photon science department of DESY. I developed there software for detector control.
I joined in March 2012 the WP-76 (DAQ & Control Systems) in the European XFEL GmbH, working as Device Integrator Scientist. I am now member of the CAS (Control and Analysis Software) group.
