I’m an Italian-Argentinian Unity developer with 6+ years of experience, based in Krakow, Poland.

I can take care of many different areas of development, from VFX, to set dressing, code and design.

I have a strong eye for art direction and like to find solutions and workflows that facilitate visual cohesion.

I've developed and shipped 2 award winning games as an indie-dev: Promesa and CUCCCHI.
