I draw, write and synthezise to communicate the essence of people’s ideas. I often work in teams, for corporate clients and the public sector, cultural and educational institutions, businesses and individuals. Visualization is my key to successful projects: a native tool to facilitate creative solutions in real time (both in large-sized graphic recordings and small sketchnotes) and to produce the fitting media format for specific missions and audiences.

My visual style adapts to the project need and context, varying from simple to complex, abstract to realistic – always serving the clarity of your vision. Are you interested in learning from me and my methods? I’m a passionate teacher, too.
