Born and raised in sunny Palermo, Sicily; my interest in the internet, the web and graphic design started when I was 14.
Years later, after fulffilling my dream of attending Europe's best design school, IED - Istituto Europeo di Design, I arrived in Australia.
I am currently based in Melbourne, Victoria, and I'm always looking for new challenges and experience.

Why Nerd
I am completely devoted to new technologies, from desktop computers to mobile devices and programming structures. I have a strong interest towards graphic design and real-time interaction software such as Processing and Quartz Core for graphic design interaction.
I am also fond of interaction design and development with devices like Arduino, Wii controller, Kinect.
I love keeping myself up to date with what’s new about the IT world; I am fond of science fiction, tattoos and Harley-Davidson motorbikes.
Why Skullz
Skullz stands for Skills. My work and educational experience have provided my with a solid and varied background that can actually make a difference on the projects I deliver and the companies I work for: not only am I strongly confident with web development, but I am also well aware of the importance of combining the best marketing and user experience practices in order to develop a website that will generate conversions and leading big teams to achieve their goals.
