Per più di 20 anni ho rivestito il ruolo di direttore tecnico in diverse aziende manifatturiere
Nella mia ultima esperienza aziendale ho guidato diversi team che hanno sviluppato in modalità agile più di 50 prodotti industriali dotati di software di automazione.
Ho diretto la transizione verso questo nuovo approccio con la costituzione di una “Mini-Fabbrica Agile” all’interno della quale operavano oltre 190 persone.
Oggi affianco le aziende nello sviluppo agile dei nuovi prodotti e nella necessaria trasformazione organizzativa

Su di me…
Ogni mattina pratico mindfulness.
Amo camminare nella natura e intraprendere viaggi itineranti senza un percorso definito.
Sono un appassionato di cinema e un vorace lettore di saggi.

I'm a construction project management professional with over seven years of experience turning complex infrastructure visions into reality. My journey spans two continents, from managing a $1.3 billion infrastructure project in India with a 40-person engineering team to overseeing critical highway and bridge rehabilitation projects across Connecticut.
What drives me is the intersection of precision engineering and real-world problem-solving. I've developed systematic approaches to quality control that have resulted in zero major defects on multiple projects, saving millions in potential rework costs while maintaining tight schedules.
My expertise centers on large-scale infrastructure projects, particularly bridge rehabilitation and highway construction. I specialize in that crucial space where engineering meets execution – ensuring designs translate flawlessly into built environments while maintaining the highest safety and compliance standards.
Having worked extensively with CTDOT specifications and federal compliance requirements, I bring a unique perspective on adapting international construction practices to American standards. This cross-cultural expertise has proven invaluable in navigating complex regulatory environments and managing diverse project teams.
I hold a Master's in Civil Engineering from the University of New Haven and maintain certifications including Construction Manager-in-Training (CMIT), OSHA 30, and specialized training in bridge management and concrete inspection through the National Highway Institute.
My speaking focuses on practical, actionable insights drawn from active field experience – because the best lessons come from real projects, real challenges, and real solutions that work under pressure.
