I am a young Audio Engineer (24) with a panoramic and solid knowledge of the audio field. I am interested in finding a company that I can dedicate myself to and which will allow me to mature as an engineer.

Beginning at the age of 17 as a runner and stage assistant at live music events, I followed my passion and took a course in audio for cinema and multimedia and began working in post-production. During this time I worked on a number of projects in Italy in a variety of roles such as: audio editor, production recording engineer and sound designer.

In order to widen my knowledge and experience in the audio industry, I decided to leave Italy to relocate to London.
Consequently, in 2008 I was awarded a Diploma in Audio Engineering from the SAE Institute of Technology in London and I started to mix some English artists.
