About Me

I have had the rare privilege of building my career with the organizations that define their industries. This journey has defined my professional obsession: bridging the gap between the "Marketing Laws" of brand building and the transformative "Digital Economics" of AI.

I built my foundation at the "School of Unilever", mastering the rigor of international marketing, P&L management, and product innovation. This expertise was then deployed at the forefront of technology as Chief Marketing Officer for Google Italy, and later Spain and Portugal.
