Profilo professionale
I am an automotive professional with a strong passion for the industry, supported by a solid technical background and hands-on driving experience.
I began my educational path at a technical institute specialising in mechanics, and later consolidated my studies at the Istituto Superiore Scienze dell’Automobile in Modena.
During my training years, I had the opportunity to apply my knowledge through an internship at Bieffe Project, where I immersed myself in mechanical design and developed essential practical skills.
Following the internship, I continued my professional experience at Bieffe Project as a mechanical design engineer specialised in high-performance automotive chassis, gaining experience in the full development of next-generation hypercars within a consultancy environment.
I have worked on complex projects from vehicle layout definition through to physical crash testing, operating in high-pressure technical environments with extremely demanding requirements in terms of quality, weight and performance.
I am accustomed to working in multidisciplinary and international teams, with a strong focus on attention to detail, technical problem solving and engineering excellence.
