I am a Ph.D. Fellow in the Astronautics Research Group at the University of Southampton (U.K.) where I am researching on space debris modelling and mitigation. I achieved a MEng in Astronautical Engineering at the "School of Aerospace Engineering", University of Rome "La Sapienza". During my career, I also worked as thermal, mechanical, and system engineer within ESA, DLR, and currently for the first CubeSat of the University of Southampton (University of Southampton Small Satellite, UoS3), and I am also a member of the Royal Aeronautical Society.
