About

ABOUT

For more than two decades, I have successfully addressed very complex architecture and system design engineering challenges, led numerous and very diverse multidisciplinary teams, as well as innovated with disruptive solutions  across industries, around the globe and beyond. Relentlessly, I always combine great passion, deep & broad technical knowledge, design intuition, expert team soft-skills, unique vision, and fun in what I do!
