Per gli amici, Lucio, classe 1996, sono un informatico e un designer industriale che ha cominciato a fare impresa nel paesello dove sono nato, nel centro della mia amata Sicilia. Ho 2 partit, ehm, 2 attività di cui vado fiero, una è nell'ambito dell'artigianato, settore legno, e l'altra è un'azienda agricola. Sono un perito informatico e dopo aver iniziato gli studi al dipartimento di matematica e informatica all'università di Catania, per imprevisti o forse opportunità, non ho concluso la carriera da programmatore, ho capito che volevo fare altre cose da grande e adesso sto completando gli studi in Architettura e design industriale presso la San Raffaele Roma.
Sono una ex recluta del GDG Catania e ho fatto tanta esperienza nel mondo delle startup, partendo dal brainstorming.
Ho molte skill, ma resto umile, mi piace la musica e la pasta al forno.
