About
Professional bassist, composer, and sound designer with extensive experience across the music and audiovisual industries. I specialize in creating soundtracks and immersive audio for video games and independent film projects, combining musical sensitivity with a strong technical approach to craft cohesive and engaging sonic identities.
I trained at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome, where I completed a Master’s degree in video game music composition, focusing on interactive music and applied sound design.
As a bassist, I’ve performed for high-profile clients such as Armani and Hermès, and collaborated with directors as well as major television and film producers on a wide range of projects.
In addition to my performance and composition work, I operate as a music producer, supporting artists and productions in developing tracks, arrangements, and sound design with a strong emphasis on quality, stylistic consistency, and emotional impact.

Work experience
Soundtrack Composer & Sound Designer for a digital company, creating original music and immersive audio for video games and virtual reality experiences. Worked closely with development teams to design and implement soundscapes that enhance gameplay, narrative, and user engagement.
Bassist and Band Coordinator for XO Live Music, a premium live performance project specializing in luxury and ultra-luxury events across Italy. As a bassist, I performed at exclusive events for high-profile clients including Armani, Hermès, film producers, and private international clientele, in some of the most prestigious venues in the country. Alongside my performance role, I coordinated the band’s logistics, managing travel, scheduling, technical requirements, and on-site organization. I served as the main point of contact between event planners, venues, and the band, ensuring seamless execution of every performance in high-pressure, high-standard environments.
I own Skynet Studio, where I work as a music and artistic producer for a wide range of artists. In this role, I handle music production and artistic direction across different projects, supporting artists from the creative stage through to final release. I have collaborated with record labels such as Virgin Records, contributing to the development and production of released material. As a producer and co-producer, I have had several tracks featured in Spotify editorial playlists, helping the projects reach a wider international audience and gain strong streaming visibility.
