I obtained a BA in Philosophy from the University of Turin (UniTo) in 2019, supervised by Vincenzo Crupi and Michele Lubrano. Still at UniTo, I obtained an MA in Philosophy (International Curriculum) in 2022, supervised by Matteo Plebani. In January 2023 I moved to the University of Oslo (UiO) as a Doctoral Research Fellow in Philosophy, under the supervision of Øystein Linnebo and funded by the advanced ERC project “C:FORS: Construction in the Formal Sciences”, within which I dealt with work package 1 (constructional approaches to the foundations of mathematics).

In February 2026 I submitted my dissertation  “Layering Everything and More. A Compact Study of the Iterative Conception of Set”, which I successfully defended in June 2026 with the following evaluation committee: Tim Button (UCL; first opponent), Gabriel Uzquiano (USC; second opponent), Karen Crowther (UiO;  committee administrator). Until September 2026 I qualified for the Completion Grant as a Doctoral Research Fellow at UiO, and I finally moved to Oxford in October 2026 as a Career Development Fellow in Philosophy at Christ Church.

I have held visiting positions at the following institutions: Visiting Researcher (April 2024), University College London (UCL), supervised by Tim Button; Visiting Researcher (November 2024), National University of Singapore (NUS), sponsored by Isaac Wilhelm and Neil Barton; Short Term Scholar (January-March 2025), University of Southern California (USC), supervised by Gabriel Uzquiano.
