Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Have fun and enjoy every single moment of my life... life it is way too short! Be kind to everyone and you'll see that everything else will come together on its own.
ABOUT ME
I was born in a northern Italian province called Trento from the marriage of my Italian father and my American mother. Raised in Italy my entire life until I moved to the U.S. in 2010 to pursue my college education in this beautiful country. I am a Computer engineering Graduate for the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. I'll be starting work in Seattle in a few weeks. I am a dual citizen of both Italy and the U.S. I am a very open minded and love love travelling. I am a devoted college student but I like to have a good time as well. I have backpacked almost Europe in its entirety. Backpacked also through many countries in South East Asia and Central/South America. I am fluent in Spanish, English and Italian.
PHILOSOPHY
Do everything that you might regret not doing in your later years. Life is so beautiful but short so you have to enjoy every single moment of it.

Music, Movies, and Books
All kinds of books. I have just recently really gotten into reading. Not really into science fiction. I really enjoy books about physics/astronomy and historical true-stories (about the war etc.).
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Lived on the biggest lake in Italy, Lake Garda, for my entire life. Backpacked Europe. Received my PADI scuba diving license in Hurghada, Egypt - beautiful coral reef.
Sky dove over the beautiful city of Verona.
Backpacked through southeast asia with a great buddy of mine.. no plans no timeframe.. just a lot of fun.
