These are links which can be useful to understand who I am and what I do (or don't) in my life
Personal Creations Inc. - Marina del Rey, Los Angeles, CA (USA)
The Californian company which brought me to Los Angeles, for one of the greatest time of my life. Personal Creations Inc. is a lighting and projections design company. Its founder and deus ex machina is Marc Rosenthal (my ex boss) who worked for such artists as Herbie Hancock, Barbra Streisand, Sting,Suzanne Vega, Ozzy Osbourne and for the most important theatres and theme parks in the United States
Queen Margaret University College - Edinburg (Scotland)
The university based in Edinburgh where I got my MBA award in cultural management. This was also a great life experience. I met a whale of persons from all around the world who shared with me love and devotion for the performing arts. Somebody also settled down and got married in Edinburgh! Indeed, Edinburgh is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, with its 12 theatre and music festivals and the highest inhabitants/pubs ratio in the world over. Why did I get back to Italy?
Edinburgh Jazz and Blues Festival - Edinburgh (Scotland)
One of the most important jazz festivals in the world. One of its directors, Mr. Spence, is a cultural manager with an enormous passion for music, who shares and transmits love for this profession with simplicity and humbleness, qualities not so common in Italy...I carried out a market research for the Festival in order to identify the audience profile at new jazz concerts

Historical theatre in Naples. I worked as marketing officer for one year and 1/2. Experience which tought me....what? What did it teach me? Or did not?

Fitzcarraldo Foundation - Turin (Italy)
The foundation reseaches cultural management issues and organizes the best cultural management courses in Italy. I held a lesson in theatre marketing at the "Responsible for Cultural Project" course on the 28th of January 2005. So far this has been the most gratifying experince of my professional carrier, considering that I am not "a son of professor" (in Italy that's crucial for an academic carrier...) and that I was invited to hold a lecture for my professional merit and not for "jus sanguinis" (father heritage or recommendation)
Auditorium Parco della Musica - Rome (Italy)
For music lovers the Auditiorium is the most beautiful venue in the world. Just this
La Palma Jazz Club - Rome (Italy)
One of the best clubs in Rome which offers great live music all year round. On summertime the club organizes the Fandango Jazz Festival, featuring a lot of high quality gigs at reasonable prices. Food is good too and the vine list is pretty representative

Dasvidania are the best pop rock band in Italy, not only because they are friends of mine but also because they produce an elegant, clever and highly contagious sound
Fiorenza Calogero - Castellammare di Stabia, Naples (Italy)
A passionate artist who excites and charmes with her live performances and artistic sensibility
