Kort om meg

I’m a Ph.D. student at the University of Stavanger with a strong background in embedded systems, firmware development, and low-level programming. I graduated in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Verona in 2020, where I grew a passion for developing software on microcontrollers and real-time systems.

Before starting my Ph.D., I worked for the IoT consultancy industry, where I contributed to various R&D projects in the IoT and automation domains. I enjoy working close to the hardware, especially with C and C++, and I like exploring how systems behave under the hood.

Dette forsker jeg på

My research explores how Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and wearable devices can be used to support Active and Assisted Living (AAL). I’m currently working on a system that uses smart glasses, wearable sensors, and environmental data (like BLE beacons and Wi-Fi signals) to recognize symptoms and daily activities in people with Parkinson’s disease. By running AI algorithms directly on the devices, the system can detect issues like Freezing of Gait in real-time and provide timely, personalized feedback to the user.

Ultimately, my goal is to create adaptive, context-aware tools that help people manage their conditions more independently, while also easing the load on healthcare systems.
