about me

This website will hold some blog posts with code snippets and recipes. Find more on my YouTube and in my GitHub Gists.

I am now an Assistant Professor at the University of Birmingham and leader of the Tarzia Research Group, working to integrate computational tools for molecular materials design with experimental activities.

From 2022-2025, I worked as a Fixed-term assistant professor (RTD-a; funded by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR)) at Politecnico di Torino with the Pavan Lab.

I worked as a postdoc in the Jelfs Materials Group at Imperial College London on the development of software and methods for the efficient screening of coordination cages and other (supra)molecular materials.

I carried out my PhD at the University of Adelaide in Australia as a member of the Huang and Sumby-Doonan research groups and with support from the CSIRO. I studied the use of high-throughput methods to explore the chemical space of functional porous materials.

I am actively developing open-source codes and databases for molecular materials discovery. My research focusses on the side-by-side workflows of experimental and computational chemists toward high-success materials synthesis.
