Ho una laurea in Scienze e Gestione delle Risorse Faunistico-Ambientali, conseguita presso l'Università degli Studi di Firenze, e un dottorato in Management, conseguito presso la Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna. La maggior parte della mia ricerca riguarda la gestione e la conservazione della fauna selvatica, con un focus sulle specie aliene invasive, e le sue interazioni con le attività antropiche. Mi occupo principalmente di analisi di dati con correlazione spaziale-temporale. Attualmente sono ricercatore presso il dipartimento di medicina veterinadia dell'Università degli Studi di Sassari, dove mi occupo di conservazione degli avvoltoi ed analisi dei dati di movimento.
