I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Padua. I earned my Ph.D. from the University of Genoa and have been a visiting scholar at Columbia University and the University of Sheffield. Previously, I held a postdoctoral position at the University of L'Aquila

I have published papers on the metaphysics of persistence and personal identity and authored a book, "Piccola Guida Filosofica all'Identità Personale" (Laterza, 2023). I am editing the new Italian edition of Derek Parfit's "Reasons and Persons" (Il Saggiatore, 2025), and I am currently working on personal identity in the virtual world and on a formal definition of the counterpart relation.

In between academic research, I obtained a permanent teaching position in the Italian high school system since it seems I cannot do any other work outside reading, teaching, and writing. Nonetheless, given that I am an optimist, I've tried construction, farming, and fathering.
