In short

I study and develop tools for human motion analysis, focusing on practical and accessible solutions for clinicians and performance professionals.

I began my training at Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Campus Bio-Medico in Rome, and I am now continuing this work at Columbia University and at the Leon Root, M.D. Motion Analysis Laboratory at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.

My work spans wearable sensors, computer vision tracking, and streamlined experimental workflows, with an emphasis on creating validated methods that translate directly into practice.

My goal is simple: accurate, affordable, and reproducible biomechanics.

Democratizing Biomechanics

High-quality motion analysis should not require expensive labs. I work on open, modular pipelines built on consumer-grade cameras, IMUs, and robust algorithms. My goal is to help labs and clinics adopt reliable protocols that make advanced biomechanics broadly accessible.

Peer Recognition

"I believe it is a worthwhile, novel work that makes an excellent contribution to the body of biomechanics literature."

Current Trends

I am exploring low-cost kinematics with marker-assisted monocular tracking, kinematic protocols for upper-limb joints, and validation frameworks that quantify accuracy and repeatability.
