Overview
About Me
I'm an avid traveler and I love discovering the world. I currently reside in Milan, my hometown, but I've lived, worked and studied in Los Angeles, Rome and London.
I work at a social media agency (monday-friday) and during the weekends I help out running a small business I co-own with my brother (http://www.birriciclo.it). In my spare time I'm also shooting a feature documentary called Lovedom (http://facebook.com/lovedomdoc) about a group of Milan-based same-sex couples married abroad and Italy's journey towards the recognition of same-sex marriage.
I love everything that has to do with visual media: art, design, film, plays. I also love the outdoors, cooking and sampling foreign cuisines.
I'm a restless nomad soul who hates boredom!
