My first step into the working world...

...was in restaurants when I decided to pause my university studies and head off to London. This experience opened my eyes to something crucial - how important education really is, and how it can fast-track you toward your goals. That realisation led me back to Italy, where I picked up my studies again, this time focusing on finance and administration, which kickstarted my career as an accountant. After spending several years building my experience in accounting, I felt ready for a change and made the leap into the tech world.

Who am I today?

I'm an unstoppable optimist, a dreamer who never loses sight of their vision. I strive to maintain the wonder-filled gaze of a curious child, always eager to learn and discover. I'm a problem solver at heart, one who embody innovation through creativity and an unwavering pursuit of excellence. How do I bring this to life? By creating products and services that make a difference, especially in the digital realm, where possibilities are endless and every day brings new opportunities to innovate.

When I'm not working...

...I love keeping my mind and body active by pursuing various interests.
Around age 15, thanks to my high school economics teacher, I became fascinated by the logic behind capital movements. This led me to dive deeper into finance and later geopolitics. I began my journey of experimentation in the world of investments. Over the years, this interest also drew me closer to the startup ecosystem, both as an aspiring entrepreneur and as an angel investor.
Beyond investments, I'm passionate about technology - an interest I developed from a very young age, thanks to my fix-it-all dad. In this field, I enjoy seeking out and testing new tools that help improve productivity (I'm a bit of an organisation enthusiast!).
Moving away from the "business" sphere, I'm drawn to architecture and love exploring how urban design shapes our experiences. This fascination naturally led me to explore mobility and transportation systems - an interest that even inspired me to pursue a startup venture in that space.
When I need to recharge my mental batteries, I enjoy dedicating time to sports like cycling, climbing, or basketball, or working on woodworking and metalworking projects.
And when I really want to unwind, I immerse myself in reading (history or biographies) or lose myself in gardening.
These interests fuel my curiosity and creativity, keeping me inspired both personally and professionally.
