Curriculum vitae

I obtained a degree in Exercise and Sport Science at the University of Bologna with a dissertation about a comparison of European laws on anti doping in 2002. I resulted the best student in the faculty and was awarded the Rotary Club Bologna prize that year.

After the degree I did a three-year doctorate in Sport Sciences at the University of Bologna with a sport management research and final thesis on the quality of sports service and its relationships with the user's wellness.

In 2005 and 2006 the Legal Studies Department A. Cicu awarded me with a research grant for my researches on cooperation projects between public and private in the tourism field.
