About
I’m the Communications Director and Community Development Manager of
OpenCitations, an independent not-for-profit infrastructure organization for open scholarship dedicated to the publication of open bibliographic and citation data by the use of Semantic Web technologies. It is also engaged in advocacy for open citations, particularly in its role as a key founding member of the
Initiative for Open Citations (I4OC). I’m a Junior Research Fellow at the University of Bologna, whose Research Centre for Open Scholarly Metadata formally manages OpenCitations. My role in OpenCitations is to reach out to the scholarly community, to develop OpenCitations’ social media platforms (
LinkedIn and
Twitter) and the OpenCitations blog, and to communicate and promote the values, services and impact of OpenCitations throughout the world.
Education
I graduated in Visual Arts at the University of Bologna with the thesis “Presenting the future in the Digital Age. The semiotic convergence between art and IxD design in the practice of Future Casting”. Being deeply passionate about the adaptive potential of language in all its forms, from classical linguistics to visual semiotics, I have various experiences in web journalism and publishing.
