After ten years of Electronic Engineering, in 2011 I began my career in design with a move resembling Yves Klein's saut dans le vide. Since then, I worked across different realms including branding, exhibition, interaction, data visualisation, technology and digital.

My activity has always been a mix of branding, experience and technology, weaving together strong design aesthetics with technical know-how to bridge the gap between design and engineering.

Today I mainly guide and manage people and teams, but I still regularly get my hands dirty with pixels (favouring generative branding), because I've always thought that “ideas only matter if they’re made real” (quote by the great folks at Area17).


I currently work at I MILLE Milano, where I lead complex projects, ranging from strategy to product development, for clients willing to stay ahead of the times.

I want to make beautiful things for people who care.

Coaching and speaking

The more I learn, the more I realise how much I don't know. This is the reason why I agree with those saying that teaching is the best way to learn.

Sharing knowledge with people forces you to question yourself deeper than usual, and most of the times you come up realising that you were missing some bits.
Richard Feynman used to say: “If you can't explain an idea to an 8 year old, you don't understand it.”
