"Art is the most beautiful

and useless thing there is,

but also a

good investment".

DEODATO SALAFIA

"YOU DON'T KNOW WHO I THINK I AM.”

In a word, I am an explorer. In other words... that's who I am.

​I am an entrepreneur who leads a team of about 40 people, divided between contemporary art and technology. My work brings me face-to-face with institutions, banks, tax consultants, advisors, clients, and major partners. I have a deep understanding of business processes, know how to program and create algorithms, manage delegation, understand budgets, master digital marketing, and move with empathy, kindness, determination, and risk awareness. I know the value of form and protocol. This list encapsulates what I know, but this page is not called “what I know” but “who I am.” To get there, let's start with “what I am”.

​

​I am a product of biology, a living thing that was born biologically and will die biologically. I am also a complex neuronal system, so articulated that it can neither be contained nor defined entirely. Moreover, I am a “database” of experiences and information stored in my neural system. But “who I am” goes beyond that.

 

​“Who I am” can not be defined in solitude, because “who” always implies a relationship. While “what I know” and “what I am” address an observer, which could also be me, “who I am” presupposes another than me. Defining “who I am” therefore means asking “who are you” and, more importantly, “what can we do together.

 

What can we do together? Two things, or a combination of them. The first: smile ironically at life's oddities. The second: put our resources at the service of something greater, generating new opportunities with love and creativity.
