i am currently working as a teaching assistant for the third-year graphic design course at my old academy (LABA) in Florence.
I keep working as freelance as well, for example as an illustrator for the medical magazine "Cancerworld", creating both covers and images inside the magazine. Also, I work(ed) for the SOS Children's Villages and War Child Holland companies, specifically holding the role of illustrator to re-new an international project called "ReachNow" Tool. We're gradually expanding it through the years, since we started in 2022.
I have been involved with other companies and graphic studios, but in particular with War Child we're building a fertile collaboration over time, co-operating on multiple projects across graphic design and illustration.
