i'm a serial hacker and community builder, constantly exploring the realms of web3 and frontier tech. driven by curiosity, i embrace risk and failure as opportunities for growth. my passion for decentralized social platforms keeps me active on farcaster, where i share insights, ship mini-apps, and experiment with new mechanics for social coordination.


in my hometown of rome, i founded urbe.eth — a vibrant community for web3 builders. we launched the first web3 hub in italy: a space where devs, designers, and dreamers meet, co-work, and build together. from hackathons to bootcamps, it's where ideas turn into prototypes and strangers into collaborators.


i also co-founded builders garden, a web3 product studio and experimental playground. we help protocols and startups test new SDKs, ship MVPs, and spark adoption through real products, not pitch decks.


over the years, i've attended (and won) major eth hackathons across the globe, building everything from social games and crypto wallets to stablecoin payment tools and onchain ads. i believe in learning by building — fast, scrappy, and always a bit weird.


currently, i'm focused on building social mini-apps and games on farcaster — crafting playful, viral experiences that bring people onchain without them even realizing it.
