In a few words

46 years old, graduated in industrial design. Freelance.

I worked for 8 years as a marketing designer at Tesa Spa, a multinational company specialized in the production of adhesive solutions. Due to internal restructuring my position has been suppressed. I designed brochures, catalogues, advertising, merchandising and trade fair stands.

I started my career as industrial designer at Whirlpool, continuing in the Lenci Design studio in Rome. The offer of a collaboration with a hosting agency then led me to start a freelance activity as industrial, web and graphic designer, starting collaborations with an advertising agency (Kronomark), a marketing agency (Emotion Marketing), a design studio (Nicola Novelletto) and an IT services company (Iway Srl).

The passion for design and the related technical aspects are the common thread that binds all my different professional experiences, the result of tenacity, flexibility and adaptability, characteristics thanks to which I have been able to work at 360 thus, also in different fields.
