I use Italian and Latin palaeography in my role at the University of Glasgow, and have taught Latin palaeography to beginners. I also have experience of using French palaeography and English palaeography.
La Sfera
Previously, I was a member of the extended team on the La Sfera Project, which used different methodologies to explore La Sfera, a treatise by Florentine merchant Gregorio ‘Goro’ Dati. I worked as part of Mapping La Sfera, which applied geospatial tools and analysis to Dati’s work. Find out more here.
Earlier, I was a member of the international team transcription challenges:
