I’m a senior multidisciplinary designer, specialised in user experience, that has a goal: bringing innovation into organisations! In order to do that, I became an entrepreneur! My childhood passion for design, along with being a digital enthusiast, moulded me into someone that has innovation written in his DNA, not just using it as a buzzword.

Subsign
Head of Design
Subsign is an awarded digital content agency. We create marketing strategies and digital products that bring real business results. Some of the most appreciated projects are the Vabbe - Oroscopo (Mobile & Web that became the most downloaded app in Italy), Oradea's City Branding and Accesa websites and campaigns.
I founded the agency when I was 26 years old, and I lead the design department ever since. Having full ownership of the products and the clients helped me increase my communication skills, develop a more empathic approach for the clients, and have a better understanding of their needs and goals. Since then, I've had multiple international design awards, witnessed amazing achievements and supported heart breaking stories.
I've had the pleasure of working with clients from the Entertainment Field, Personal Development, Athletes, E-Commerce to Big Corporations, Augmented Reality Agencies and Game Studios.

New Haircut
Senior Designer
I have worked with US based clients, starting from the brief, concept phase, up until delivering the final prototype to implementation. Being part of a multinational team helped me better understand that design principles and cultural references tend to differ from one area of the globe to another.
