I am a lay lacanian psychoanalyst based in Rome. I have participated, and continue to participate, in several psychoanalytic study groups, research groups, schools, and institutions, including ALI–Rome (Associazione Lacaniana Internazionale), APOLa (Apertura para Otro Lacan), Corpo Freudiano, and APPOA (Associação Psicanalítica de Porto Alegre).

I also hold a monthly seminar with colleagues from Brazil on topology and have published articles with psychoanalytic institutions and journals in Brazil and Ireland. I also worked as a volunteer listener and coordinator at Instituto Aus Ouvidos, a non-profit organization that provides free and accessible online Escuta Pontual (focused listening) services. I have also taught a course entitled Clinical Introduction to Lacanian Psychoanalysis for master's students at the Global Centre for Advanced Studies.

My master's thesis was entitled What Psychoanalysis in the Age of Neuroscience?, in which I explored initial paths through which lacanian psychoanalysis might respond to the biologization and cerebralization of human affairs by sustaining its own theoretical premises rather than adopting the neuro-prefix. In my Ph.D. research, I am investigating how individualism and biologism have become dominant “Western thought models”. More specifically, I am investigating how Lacanian research may challenge individualistic and biologistic tendencies.
