Italian Art Director & Visual Designer
I work as Art Director & Graphic Designer, as Consultant and I was Head of the Graphic Design and Visual Communication Department for an International University.
As we live in a world made of empty and obscure titles I’d like to elaborate:
My goal is to make sure that any message is understood as intended by a pre-determined receiver.
I do this working within agencies, as a freelancer or as a consultant.
In my academic role I worked to pass my knowledge and experience to others so that they could use them as a part of their personal and professional development.
I have been gifted with the opportunity to live and work for many years in places such as the United Kingdom (London), Thailand (Bangkok) and Japan (Fukuoka) other than, of course, Italy (Perugia and Rome).
This allows me to be very flexible and work with ease with different cultures, environments and time zones.
Through the years I spent quite some time working with a wide range of professionals in many different environments. This made me realise that “getting the job done” is just the final part of a journey.
Before, there is the “while you get the job done”.
Who you spend that “while” with, makes a world of difference to the experience. I always keep this in mind.
The main goal in the work I do is trying to bring extra value in peoples lives; whether this is through a design I create or a speech I give.
Change can be brought in many different ways; however small it may be, I like to make my contribution.
I also have a life other than working.
I do believe life is an opportunity, an adventure in which we are both the explorers and unchartered territories.
Every story is deeply different, but they have one thing in common; learning to move forward despite difficulties, while respecting whoever and whatever is around us, makes us the hero of our own adventure.
Hard calls, unexpected situations, irrational decisions can prove to be defining moments in our life, or good memories at the very least. Still they all contribute to make us who we are.
Maybe in the end we’ll find One Eyed Will‘s treasure. Maybe not.
But man, what a ride regardless!
