I am an illustrator and designer, living and working in the province of Udine. Curiosity and wonder are the foundation of my ongoing exploration. I have a small apiary in the mountains where, between one visit and another, I collect little things that catch my attention: exoskeletons, feathers, bark, pebbles. All these objects end up in my wunderkammer, which is also my studio, where I create editorial illustrations, commissioned artwork, and graphics for companies and associations.
In 2017, I graduated with an academic diploma in comic book and illustration from the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna. Subsequently, I attended advanced courses with Gabriel Pacheco, Joanna Concejo, and Jeusus Cisneros at the International School of Illustration of the Stepan Zavrel Foundation.
I have worked for international and Italian publishing houses (Perla Ediciones, Zanichelli editor), for small local producers, and for cultural institutions such as parks and libraries, where I also organize drawing and creative writing workshops for both children and adults.
