Summary
As a Product Designer with more than 3 years of international experience, I had the honor to be involved on the development of a wide and various range of Luxury and Consumer products, from Yacht to Major and Small Kitchen Appliances.
This opportunity has allowed me to gain an invaluable confidence both as a team player and as an individual that has given me a comprehensive understanding of how an unconditioned and multicultural approach can represent the real added value on the entire Design Process
Thanks also to a multidisciplinary academic background, I have cultivated a strong manufacturing knowledge that makes me a pragmatic product developer with a solid engineering skills. In addition, I am a confident, polite, strong self-motivated, passionate, and potential extreme sportsman person. I have a good team building and communication skills, I work well under pressure with an acute awareness of deadlines, and most of all, with a tireless and hungry desire to learn as more as possible day by day.
