Curriculum vitae

Employment history 

January 2022 - present: Associate Professor in Statistics at Ca' Foscari University of Venice (italy) 

January 2019 - January 2022: Lecturer (RTDb, Levi Montalcini Fellowship) in Statistics at Ca' Foscari University of Venice (italy) 

April 2016 - January 2019: Lecturer in Statistics at the University of Bath (UK) 

July 2012 - April 2016: Statistician, Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UK)

January 2011 - May 2012: Statistician, Jannsen Pharmaceutica (Belgium)

I obtained a Bachelor and a Master in Statistics applied to Social Sciences from the University of Padova, my hometown in Italy. During my master studies I spent one year as an Erasmus student at the K.U.Leuven, where I returned to do a PhD under the supervision of Irène Gijbels and Gerda Claeskens. My thesis discussed methods to extend traditional Generalised Additive Models to allow the (robust) estimation of mean and variance function. 

My research interests are in the use of non-parametric regression models and in the extreme value statistics applied to hydrological and environmental problems in general.
