By meFrom law to Web3
I came to blockchain from the humanities: a law degree from Tor Vergata, then sports economics and digital marketing, followed by master's programmes in blockchain and an executive programme in digital assets.
Before my current roles I was CMO at Folks Finance, a DeFi protocol on Algorand. In 2022 I organized Blockchain Forum Italia, including its startup battle, and I served on the jury of the Assintel Digital Awards for Italia4Blockchain.
