About
I graduated from the University of Toronto in 2025 with an Honours BSc in cognitive science, computer science and psychology. That mix still shapes how I work: I start with the people who will use something, then pick the tools to build it.
Right now I’m building AdvanceOps, a startup that automates small-business workflows with AI. I’ve built a Claude API system that sorts incoming requests by priority and drafts replies, and next I’ll use n8n to connect workflows like it to the tools firms already use.
I got started on the web in 2010, running a small hosting company called ExusHost. I speak English and Italian.
I’m based in Squamish, BC. Outside work I’m on the trails, camping, doing yoga, going to EDM shows and taking photos.
