I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of Trento, Italy. My current research topic is the use of haptic feedback for motor skills learning and my main research interests are user experience, tangible interaction and haptics. I received my master’s degree in Communication Science in 2011 from the University of Siena (Italy) with a thesis on public displays as a tool for corporate internal communication. Before beginning the Ph.D., I worked as interaction designer at the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) and TrentoRISE. In 2011, I have worked for 5 months as Project Manager Intern in a new media agency where I was in charge of customers care and workflow organization
