I obtained my degree in Organic Chemistry in Italy in 2004 and subsequently moved to Cardiff University, where I completed a PhD in Organic Materials Chemistry in 2008. My doctoral research focused on the synthesis and characterisation of novel Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity (PIMs), under the supervision of Professor Neil B. McKeown.Following my PhD, I worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Cardiff University (2008–2013) and at the University of Edinburgh (2014–2017).In October 2017, I was appointed Lecturer in Chemistry at Swansea University and was promoted to Senior Lecturer in March 2020.In December 2025, I joined the Instituto de Síntesis Química y Catálisis Homogénea (ISQCH), CSIC, in Zaragoza as an Investigador Científico (Senior Researcher), which is my current position.In 2017 I have successfully finished the Postgraduate Certificate Academic Practice (PgCERT) at the University of Edinburgh for which I have become a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (HEA).I am also a member of the Royal Society of Chemistry (MRSC) and a STEM Ambassador.
