Personal profile

Biography

I joined ANU in July 2022, as Associate Professor of Italian and convenor of the Italian Studies programme.

I am a leading scholar of Italian migration to Australia, and have also researched on the role of sport in informal processes of transculturation. My most recent research focuses on decolonial approaches to migration history and transcultural studies; and on art and design driven participatory projects. My research and teaching have been supported by prestigious organizations, including the National Geographic, the Scanlon Foundation, the Cassamarca Foundation, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Prato City Council.
