Description

I am a 29-year-old designer based in Padua who would like to explore other fields in life! I'm a curious person, I love learning by doing, and I believe in the importance of human connections.

I am nearing the end of my current employment, and before returning to my hometown (Milan) to start a career as an independent designer, I would like to have a meaningful experience where I can meet new people and discover different countries! I have never worked abroad before, and I would love to challenge myself in this way.

I have always loved nature. When I walk in the woods, I feel like I’m in the right place. I would love to explore this simple and authentic way of living even more. I enjoy working with my hands and try to do so in my everyday life: from prototyping new objects to making small home improvements, I love putting a piece of myself into the things I create. Speaking of manual skills, I also love painting! I recently started a painting course here in Padua, and I definitely feel that it is my cup of tea! From sketching a subject to experimenting with colors, everything about it feels like the perfect way to express myself.

In general, I am passionate about many forms of art: I love visiting art exhibitions, going to the cinema, and exploring photography and sculpture. I truly enjoy immersing myself in artistic and cultural experiences, as they inspire and enrich my perspective on life. I spend a significant part of my free time reading and listening to podcasts. I consider this one of the most important aspects of my life, keeping the learning process always open gives me the energy to approach and face whatever comes my way.

I also value wellness as something that allows me to fully enjoy other experiences. That’s why I appreciate healthy food and exercise whenever they fit into my current rhythm.

More details about your skills

The skills in my arsenal are many and varied, thanks to my strong open-minded approach to learning and research.

I am a very hands-on person: since childhood and throughout my work as a product designer, I have always relied on manual creativity. This is why I enjoy repairing things, working with my hands, and building object prototypes.

I am a good listener: through my personal growth journey, I have learned to listen to my own feelings, which has also helped me truly listen to others and engage in meaningful discussions.

I am a flexible individual: through my travels abroad and moving to different cities, I have learned that discomfort often turns out to be an opportunity to discover new sides of myself and understand what is truly essential to keep.
