About

My name is Sofia and I hold a Master’s degree in Environmental Monitoring and Requalification from Sapienza University of Rome. For my thesis, I studied ecological connectivity in peri-urban areas, focusing on forest formations that act as ecological corridors around the city of Rome. I am currently continuing my research as a Research Fellow at Sapienza University, where I am studying the flora of the Insugherata Nature Reserve, one of the most beautiful and natural areas within the city. I am passionate about nature and outdoor activities, and I am looking for opportunities that can support my professional and personal growth.

In my free time, I volunteer with ‘Progetto Seeds’, a non-profit organization of young biologists and naturalists. Together, we organize science outreach activities on social media, as well as events for the public such as park and nature reserve trekking, nature workshops, educational exhibitions, and environmental festivals
