I’m a sociologist working at the intersection of history, culture, and theory.

My research investigates the infrastructures of confession in late eighteenth-century Italy. I bring sociological and microhistorical approaches into ecclesiastical archives to ask how institutions organize meaning, authority, and deliberate opacity when interpretation is delegated and mediated.

In parallel, I am working on arts funding and creative autonomy, and on what Italian microhistory can offer historical and cultural sociology more broadly.

I received my PhD in Social Sciences from the University of Padova and currently serve as Associate Managing Editor at Sociologica. My work has been published in the British Journal of Sociology, has been supported by the U.S.-Italy Fulbright Commission, and has received the BJS Early Career Prize.

When I’m not in the archive, I’m chasing the perfect instant noodle or listening to punk rock (too loud).
