Dedicates his studies mainly to history of modern architecture

She obtained his PhD by discussing a thesis on "Architecture of the Bolognese Renaissance by Francesco Malaguzzi Valeri", tangent to topics of critical history between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in Lombardy and continued with an in-depth study of the relationship between Malaguzzi Valeri and Bernard Berenson.

The study continued in the context of the history of modern Bolognese architecture with in-depth studies on Ottaviano Mascarino, Antonio Morandi known as il Terribilia and the typology of women's convent architecture after the Council.

After a brief interlude, in which previous studies in the field of Bolognese architecture and scenography between the 18th and 19th centuries were resumed, with particular reference to the students of Antonio Basoli, the research is currently focused on painted architecture, a trend born in 1996 with a study on the "painter of architecture" Bartolomeo Cesi.
