I graduated in Computer Engineering in 2016. I have been working in Chialab since 2017 as a frontend Web developer, working with Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality in the Web (WebXR) and designing experiences in communication and culture. I realized and took part in several pioneering Open Source projects in WebXR (AR.js, GeoAR.js, AR.js Studio among others). Since 2020 I am Invited Expert member of W3C as a consultant for accessibility in innovative technologies. I recently undertook a PhD at the IUAV University of Venice in the program "Architecture, City and Design".
