September 2017 - July 2019. Researcher at AgroCares (Wageningen, NL)
January 2013 - July 2017. PhD Candidate at Dept. Microbial Ecology of NIOO-KNAW (Wageningen, NL)
March 2010 - April 2012. Environmental Scientist at APPA Trento (Trento, IT)
September 2006 - August 2007. Environmental Educator at Legambiente (Rome, IT)
