Presentation

Since I was young I developed an interest about the Information Technologies and later in the Communication world. To fully understand almost all of the aspects of both of those worlds, every school, course or working experience had the purpose to make me gain teamwork experiences and understand the various aspects of Communication and Information Technology.

The first computer I have ever had was an Olivetti 186, I can't really remember the specs of that computer because at that time I was young and my only purpose was to play with it, and for my father the only purpose was to write his papers for work. In the next years, arrived the first printer, Windows 3.1, the word processing software, new computers and everyday was a new discovery for me inside the Computer World. After a couple on more years arrived Internet, and I really started to enjoy that medium of communication, but I really wasn't able to totally understand the real value of it, but I was conscious that it would be a revolution in the next years. At the age of 15 during High School I decided to step up and enter deeply in this incredible world, and I made my first experience in a computer shop as an assistant to who became my first boss. I was in charge to repair computer and make simple maintenance, and sometimes deal with the customers and follow them in their technological choices and needs. During this years I became aware about the possibilities that Internet and particularly the web was starting to offer to people so I started to study in my free-time HTML and other Computer Languages and methods to start creating good web pages. The first approach with the web business happened when I was 18 years old when I started an internship during the summer in a web-design company as an assistant of the web designers, that experience was really important for me because I learned how professional people deal with the web and also I really understood what the web was in that years.

After Hight School I went to the university, so I subscribed to the faculty of "Foreign Languages and Literatures" at the Catholic University of Milan. Lots of people were surprised by that choice, cause they were expecting (looking to my interests) to choose something more technological, like Computer Science or Engineering... but I chose that filed because Internet is a new way to communicate between people, so I decided to learn the basics of the communication, the language, because without it there is no efficient way to communicate with others, and the language is not only what we speak but also what we write, language is a mean to exchange information. At the end of my Bachelor years in Milan I have found the way to do an internship in USA, in a Boston based VoIP Company, and I consider that period like one of the most important in my life, mostly because I have found great people and a great working place where I was able to explain my ideas and point of views about Internet and Communication over Internet. At the end of that internship I started my Master degree at the University of Lugano in Switzerland, at the faculty of Communication attending the MTEC (Master in Human Communications) classes, this Master (I'm a 2008 Candidate) gave me the possibility to learn what makes Internet great, especially how to realize web pages in a simple and usable way with the goal to give to users the best User Experience... and I love it...

At the moment to finishing my Master Studies and I'm writing my Master Thesis about the Legal Issues in the DRM making an economic analysis and suggesting a valid solution. At the same time I'm working as a consultant for SEO and Information Architect for a company and developing some personal projects (explained in an other section), and having an Internship as "Web Developer" at SeedLearn.
