I have developed my professional career in the world of technology, assuming roles with increasing responsibility over the years, including startup leadership and coordinating teams focused on selling solutions across Europe, the US and Latin America. I have always been passionate about travel, cultures, history, geography, sports, photography and nature, and I have organized and executed initiatives across diverse markets with a hands-on, results-driven approach. I have traveled for pleasure and work throughout Europe, Turkey, China, Iran, India, Israel, Morocco, Tunisia, USA, Brazil, Peru and Mexico, often organizing trips in a self-managed way. I speak fluent Italian, Spanish and English, with ongoing curiosity about Portuguese. In 2011 I led the Spain & Portugal subsidiary launch for an Italian group, and since 2022 I launched a new system for photography in sport, events and tourism in Spain and Europe, while maintaining a strong focus on growth and development. As of August 2024 I have taken a break to pursue self-employment with a stronger emphasis on tourism and leveraging my management experience.
