Concept artist and Art Director with 20+ years of experience between Art and Game Industry (Ubisoft, 34BigThings, Forge Reply) I love creating worlds, stories and above all multimedia experiences that help personal and human evolution.
Currently I work as Art Director and Concept Artist freelance on different unreleased titles. My duty is to oversee the work of my department and to create concepts, designs and art assets for pitch, preproduction and full production.
I work as a teacher and mentor as well, organizing workshops and giving lectures at many art schools in Italy.
I love art and making games and I always try to learn new things from the world around me to be a better person and artist.
