About

My professional experience includes working as an illustrator on the comic book Norby, published by ManFont, as well as independent publishing projects and collaborations.

I am passionate about storytelling through images and interested in collaborating on editorial projects, comics, children’s books, character design and creative visual development.
I am based in Italy and available for remote freelance collaborations worldwide.
