I am a tech leader and a maker of things.
I also am
the co-founder of moi, a deep-tech startup that pioneered robotic 3D printing
for advanced composites
the creator of MAMBO, the world's first functional 3D-printed boat
the research lead on the award-winning Atropos project, among many other +LAB's activities
the designer of the sculptures for the Necklace Residence and a designer of the Perelman Center
a teaching assistant for the M.Arch program at the School
of Architecture of Politecnico di Milano
and a speaker at international conferences and seminars.
As an enthusiastic tech leader I spent the
last decade turning diverse ideas into successful products.
I coordinated every aspect of the process from brainstorming
to R&D and GTM strategies, ensuring fruitful collaboration
among cross-functional engineering, design, marketing, and
sales teams.
In addition to my professional endeavors, I actively
contribute to the academic community as a teaching assistant at the School of Architecture of Politecnico di Milano,
while also speaking at numerous international conferences
and seminars.
