I am Italian but teach French literature and culture, and consider myself a citizen of the world as I love to travel and discover new places. I truly enjoy traveling with our alumni as I learn all about their time at UM and how the university has evolved during the years.
I am currently the Provost at UM-Dearborn. When I taught, I taught courses on French and Francophone literature and culture, including the Maghreb countries. I mostly research the French and Italian Renaissance.
I have never been to Morocco and I am very excited to see the trip sites, including Marrakech, Casablanca and Fez. I’m eager to meet the local people and learn about their culture.
