About Me

I'm a freelancer in visual communication and opera directing, born and raised in Bolzano (Northern Italy) and currently living near Venice. After a year spent in London and still often on the road for work, I enjoy the calm and poetry of beautiful Marostica as an anchor point in my life at the moment. Besides that, I wouldn't know where to start telling you about myself – my range of interests is quite wide spread and elastic, I see myself as a stereotypical Italian in many ways and as entirely un-Italian for other aspects. (Having grown up bilingual, I don't have an Italian accent... But I can fake it if necessary!) Maybe we'll have the chance to investigate further in front of a coffee or beer.
