I am specialized in sound restoration with experience in the preservation and digitization of audiovisual heritage. Since 2016, I have collaborated with the Centro di Sonologia Computazionale (CSC) at the University of Padua, working on the restoration of archival sound collections and film soundtracks. After several years of professional practice, including work at the Camera Ottica Film and Video Restoration Lab of the University of Udine, I completed a PhD at the University of Padua focused on the preservation of audiovisuals and multimedia art installations. Alongside my research, I have also collaborated as a freelance restorer with several institutions such as the National Museum of Cinema of Turin, contributing to projects presented at international film festivals. My professional activity includes teaching workshops on audiovisual restoration at institutions such as the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia in Rome, Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice, and the University of Padua. My experience at the Národní filmový archiv began in 2025, first as a visiting fellow and later as a digital sound operator, where I continue to contribute to the preservation of film heritage.
