Hi! I'm Erik,

Mechatronics Engineer with a strong passion for robotics, automation, and intelligent systems. I recently completed my Master's degree in Mechatronics Engineering, majoring in robotics and electronics. My work mainly revolves around learning from demonstration, modular robot design, and autonomous task execution—especially in real-world, uncertain scenarios.

Alongside my academic path, I've gained experience in UWB-based drone communication, embedded systems, and CAD/PCB design. I love working at the intersection of hardware and software to build robust, adaptive technologies.

Beyond my technical interests, I enjoy sports like running and swimming, as well as analog photography. Originally from Italy, I’m currently living in Verona and actively exploring new opportunities to develop both professionally and personally.
