About me
I hold a PhD in materials science and work as a researcher at the Italian National Research Council (CNR), focusing on the characterization and development of materials.
My interests extend to scientific computing, data analysis, 3D graphics, lighting, rendering, and scientific illustration. This site brings those interests together: things I write, tools I build, and images I create.
