Life experience
I have been blessed to travel the world in 35+ countries living experiences that have opened my mind and vision enriching me so much that I carry with me every day to give my best in the pursuit of excellence. The blessing of speaking 5 languages (English, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, and French) has helped me a lot, it has allowed me to live wonderful local experiences, with local people both in the personal and business context.
The main characteristics of my approach to life, people, and projects are certainly GRIT, strong communication, solution-provider, interpersonal, leadership, and the continuous search for excellence.
I love God above all things, love my wife, my son, and serve people. Love a lot of adrenaline, living adventures in nature, and of course Italian food.
