I received my PhD degree in Computer Science in 2017 from the “A. Moro” University of Bari. My research was focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Computer Vision. I attended several advanced training courses, summer schools and conferences. I taught ‘Web technologies’, ‘Advanced web 2.0 programming’, ‘System administration’ and ‘Software Project Management’ at the University of Salento. I have written more than 20 scientific publications and two books. I like to write technical texts and manuals, I do it with passion and I hope to do it for a long time. I worked on various European projects in Italy and abroad. They were concerned with technologies to improve people’s lives, including the SARACEN project (Socially Assistive Robots for Autistic Children Education), of which I was the principal investigator. Since then, I have been working on social robotics, robots that are useful to people, and AI. In 2016, I co-founded an innovative start-up that deals with AI and with which I won several awards.
