Since the beginning of her career, as a school principal, she has been involved in experimenting and implementing educational and technological innovations in schools she directed, being the IIS Amaldi the last one. During the pandemic period she systematized the school’s relations with the stakeholders of the territory of reference by mean of a formal community pact – among them the University of Rome Tor Vergata, the Municipality VI and the Metropolitan City of Rome, and several ONGs – with the aims to minimize school dropout and reduce educational poverty. She has transformed the school in an open Cultural Hub, that allows other schools of the district and, as well youths and adults living in the territory of reference to use the spaces and services provided by the school (lecture hall, library, music and recording room, historical-artistic museum, laboratories and gyms), well beyond the school hours.
