I am a licensed professional architect and a Ph.D. in Architectural Technologies from IUAV University of Venice. My principal interest is the interaction of the Human component with the safe design and use of structures. To this date my research has been into wayfinding in a variety of settings and fires related to a variety of architectural materials and systems. I am strongly motivated towards international collaboration in research, in 2007 I conducted research on glass enclosures with CWCT (Centre for Window and Cladding Technologies – Bath University Campus, UK) and Permasteelisa Group, Italy. In 2009 I conducted research in wayfinding and human behavior in fire at NRC (National Research Council Canada).
