Born in Venice, graduated in Rome with a Law Degree at Luiss Guido Carli Business School.
I then went back to Venice and after two yers practicing in a Legal firm I quit a promising and safe lawyer career to pursuit independence through my inner creative attitude.

So in 2007 I moved to Milan where I learned to perfectly serve a pizza while taking a Master’s Degree in Copywriting at Accademia di Comunicazione.
5 years and 2 agencies later (DDB and TBWA), I got a call from M&C Saatchi, where I currently work as Deputy Creative Director and with which I won my first Lion this summer.

There are two tensions that drives me in the creative process: on the one hand a strategic and analytic approach given by my legal and economic background, on the other hand, a daring desire to sail to unexplored creative territories probably due to my Venetian roots.
This combination makes me face every brief with a Daft Punk attitude: Harder, Faster, Better, Stronger.

I’m always looking for new exciting challenges so feel free to contact me at
