About

Senior Frontend Developer & Tech Lead

Senior Frontend Developer and Tech Lead โ€” 10+ years building consumer-facing web products: vehicle configurators, comparison platforms, streaming apps, and for the last 4+ years headless ecommerce with React, TypeScript, Next.js and Shopify. I specialize in frontend architecture and component-driven development for headless commerce. At JIBE eCommerce I have spent 4+ years across 15+ client storefronts, acting as tech lead on key projects and maintaining Compass, the design system powering them all. Before that: frontend architect at Overstappen.nl, Smart TV apps for Videoland, and FCA Group vehicle configurators. I work best on small senior teams where ownership matters.

The Journey

A Life in Motion

From a city on the outskirts of Bologna to the streets of Bangkok โ€” via Turin and Amsterdam, always moving, always curious.

  1. Thailand

    Bangkok

    33 y.o. ยท 2025 โ€“

    In August 2025 I left Amsterdam. Spent a few months rediscovering southern Italy, then in October boarded a one-way flight to Thailand on a digital nomad visa. Same job, same team, different hemisphere. Bangkok is loud, fast, and somehow immediately home. The question mark at the end of this chapter is the point.

  2. Netherlands

    Amsterdam

    26 y.o. ยท 2019 โ€“ 2025

    Moving to Amsterdam in early 2019 felt like stepping into the version of life I had been building toward. I lived in the heart of the city, between Centraal and Dam Square, worked in tech, and watched the world flip to remote almost overnight in March 2020. That shift suited me. By 2022 I was fully remote for a Canadian company, working across time zones โ€” and somewhere between a first trip to Indonesia and a winter in British Columbia, I realised the city I lived in mattered less than I had thought. Amsterdam gave me six and a half good years. It also planted the seed for what came next.

  3. Italy

    Torino

    21 y.o. ยท 2013 โ€“ 2018

    Five years in Turin taught me two things: that learning by doing is the only kind that sticks, and that I was not afraid of starting over somewhere new. The ITS programme put me into real projects from day one. By the time I left in late 2018, I had a career โ€” and the confidence to take a much bigger leap.

  4. Italy

    Casalecchio di Reno

    1992 โ€“ 2013

    I grew up just outside Bologna. Technical high school, computer science track โ€” where I got serious about code for the first time. Between shifts at the warehouse and the supermarket, I kept studying โ€” and when an ITS ICT programme in Turin came up with hands-on work in mobile app design, I said yes.
