Hi, welcome to my unconventional creative world!
I’m your go-to creative director and consultant, exploring the world of contemporary design in various fields, including physical and digital jewelry, among others. With skills in graphic design, photography, 3d modeling, and animation, I bring a touch of creativity to every project I handle.
Not one but three brands are my babies – one making waves in the physical design and jewelry scene, another jumping right into the digital fashion and jewelry world with a friend, and the last one revolving around the enjoyment of a good Italian wine, supporting my partner, a wine producer. These aren’t just side gigs; they’re my real-life passion projects.
I mentioned these to convey that, as an experienced entrepreneur, I’m not just into the flashy side of things. I’ve been through the ups and downs, tackling the challenges of running a business. This hands-on experience is what I bring to each project, giving me a deep understanding of what my clients truly require.
I’m not your average creative. With a dynamic international team, I bring a blend of skills to the table – creating innovative digital marketing campaigns, spanning everything from graphics to brand identity, website design and development, event communication materials, and more. And when it comes to the digital realm, we’re not limited to just 2D; we’re talking also 3D modeling, 3D animations, and even digital fitting. It’s not just about making things look good; it’s about making an impact in the digital world. it’s about breaking boundaries and redefining what’s possible.
So, if you’re on the lookout for a collaborator who not only speaks the creative language but also understands the business side, drop me a line or book a call. Let’s turn your creative aspirations into reality!
