What I'm looking for

I'm looking to grow in animal behaviour and human-animal-environment relationships, contributing to dog-training programmes and developing operational search-and-rescue dog skills.

I'm pursuing a master's degree in Human and Animal Behaviour Evolution at the University of Turin while supporting the design and delivery of dog-training programmes in Val Tidone and Turin. I'm training my own dog for missing-person search work in rubble and open-area settings, with the goal of becoming operational.

My psychology background, veterinary support experience, and public-facing roles have strengthened my behavioural observation, communication, organisation, and adaptability. I've also coached children in athletics, managed event logistics, and volunteered on projects supporting children and people with disabilities.
