Alla mia famiglia, che mi ha supportato in tutti i miei 19 anni di carriera scolastica, permettendomi di raggiungere con successo questo traguardo. A Francesca che mi ha regalato la sua presenza nei momenti peggiori e in quelli migliori, riuscendo ad offrirmi sempre il suo affetto, con gioia e serenità. Ai tutti miei zii, in particolare Ivana e Roberto per aver sempre avuto parole di conforto e sostegno, nei momenti difficili, e a Mabel per avermi aiutato ad affrontare le prime difficoltà nel mio cammino scolastico ed avermi indirizzato a questa strada con il suo esempio. A Nicola, che ha creduto in me, spronandomi a dare sempre di più, permettendomi così di portare a termine questo lavoro di tesi aiutandomi anche nella sua stesura e revisione, senza mai mancare negare un sorriso; per avermi inoltre permesso ottime esperienze, negli ambiti più disparati. A Giulia, che in tutti questi anni si è confidata e confrontata con me, dando origine ad una grande amicizia. A Mattia, che ha indirizzato la carriera universitaria; per la profonda amicizia e per essere stato sempre da riferimento. A tutti coloro che, nel mio cammino, hanno creduto in me. A tutti coloro che non hanno creduto in me, dandomi la possibilità di migliorare sempre di più. Ai miei compagni di laboratori e di studi, per avermi regalato momenti felici.
