IT analyst with over twenty years of experience across systems integration, web development and broadcast technology. Since 2013 I have been working as a consultant for the Information Systems department of Salvatore Ferragamo, where I look after the solutions that connect the company to its supplier network and support production: from order communication and progress tracking to supplier qualification and quality control.
Alongside this, I have spent years as technical manager of mobile TV production units for live broadcasts and streaming, where there is no margin for error and problems have to be solved in real time. Before that, I founded and ran a web development, e-commerce and hosting business. This path has given me an all-round view, from working with people to the most technical side, and the habit of delivering reliably under pressure.
