During my PhD and PostDoc career I continuously strived to provide high-quality teaching to students in their Bachelor and Master degrees. I was responsible of making teaching material, giving lectures, assisting in exercise and laboratory sessions, correcting exams and reports, and conducting oral tests. I was teaching assistant for the following classes:- Introduction to Space Missions Analysis held by ERC laureate Prof. F. Topputo (2018)- Dynamics and Control of Space Structures held by Prof. L. Dozio (2017 and 2018)- Introduction to Space Missions Analysis held by Prof. M. Massari (2015 and 2016)- Modeling and Simulation of Aerospace Systems held by ERC laureate Prof. F. Topputo (2015/16)

- Computed mission extension scenario to visit gravity saddle points with LISA Pathfinder (ESA)- Developed, validated and verified, and delivered ULTIMAT: a versatile interplanetary mission analysis GNC software

Austin, Texas Area

Together with Prof. Ryan P. Russell and Prof. Francesco Topputo, I computed and catalogued ballistic capture orbits about Mars, a notably impactful topic considering the current direction of Mars exploration programs.
