PROFILE
I’ve always been into technical issues, focusing on scientific aspects of environmental law
and food law. I have broad experience in: environmental law, remediation –cases, energy
industries, alternative energy – sources, wastes and reclaim issues. Lately, given my
passion for food and wine issues I started a research on wine law and food after having
spent a period in France, University of Reims. It means that I’m also into IP law. I acquired
my experience and skills both in legal and in engineering firms, managing every aspect of
the environmental case. I spent a lot of time with technical parties on conceiving projects
and finding altogether legal and technical solutions.
My own background and strong interests in other law branches and cultural issues,
together with a command of three European languages and the comprehension of other
two, have also led me to explore new boundaries in my specialty such as alternative
energy sources and, for instance, new forms of bio remediation, not forgetting different
issues such as sports law (doping issues) and food law (in particular OGM, food frauds
and wine trading law) with health-related topics. I’m confident in handling negotiations
which require a wide range of skills. All these features have made me a peculiar
professional, which I’m proud to be.
