I’m a sociologist working at the intersection of historical and cultural sociology, theory, and early modern history. My research asks how institutions organize meaning and authority in settings where interpretation is delegated, mediated, and intentionally kept opaque.

My current project investigates the infrastructures of confession in late eighteenth-century Italy. Using microhistorical methods to examine administrative ecclesiastical archives, I theorize how organizations manage discretion, secrecy, and interpretive power.

In collaborative projects, I study the relationship between funding and creative autonomy in contemporary art, and how intellectuals use paratexts—prefaces, translations, interviews—to shape how their work is received and circulated.

I received my PhD in Social Sciences from the University of Padova in September 2025. Currently, I am the Associate Managing Editor at Sociologica. My research has appeared in The British Journal of Sociology, The Journal of Classical Sociology, and Sociologica, 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 listening to punk rock or searching for the best instant noodles in town.
