About

WHERE I’M FROM

I was born and raised in Messina, Italy,Messina, Italy, where I developed a passion for technology from a young age. My father gave me my first computer when I was just seven years old, and I spent countless hours working and playing with it, even though it was the cause of my myopia. Life in Sicily was good, and people were almost always kind and ready to help, but sometimes I craved a change of scenery.

WHAT I USED TO DO

I worked as an entertainer in a tourist village and with children for birthday parties. Sometimes I dressed up as Super Mario or Hulk. I always looked for work detached from what I liked to do. At first, I thought it was a problem, but today it has turned out to be an opportunity.

WHAT I’M AT NOW

Today, I live in Monza, Italy (near Milan). When I’m not working, I enjoy playing video games and reading graphic design and productivity books. I often take walks inside Monza Park, where I can relax and clear my mind. Spending time with my family and friends is also important to me.

WHAT I DO NOW

Today, I work with Fiscozen, an Italian startup committed to simplifying bureaucracy and taxation for all entrepreneurs. I collaborate with Talent Garden to make the user experience within the campuses smarter and more accessible. When needed, I also work with two agencies, Subsense and Idib Group. Before this, I worked as a Graphic Designer for Mohd, an Italian Interior Design company.

WHAT I WANT

With my dedication to innovation and my passion for design, I am confident that I can make a significant impact in my field.
