I have always been working since 2005 in multicultural and international environments; I’m specialized in graphic design, prepress and print production and wordpress CMS.
I’m currently working at the CNR of Sesto Fiorentino since 2012. In my two previous jobs I was employed in the fashion companies GUESS and Braccialini as responsible for the production of all the marketing materials for the Store Planning dept and as graphic designer for the marketing and style offices.
My work experience has always been focused on the graphic design area. In the last 8 years of work I have been designing and delivering graphic elements for the web, creating numerous CMS portals (with WordPress and Joomla) and I learned how to develop scientific journals with OJS system.
In GUESS, I was the responsible for the production of all the marketing material (posters) for single-brand sales points (ownership and license), shop in shop, showroom and scaffolding for construction sites. I worked directly with the management secretariat and I contributed to the development of the visual identity of the brand (e.g. I designed the ‘brand integrity manual’).
In Braccialini I was the graphic designer responsible for the marketing department and I managed the production of brand catalogs, as well as posters, signage, merchandising and banners and also newsletters, infographics, event displays and information kits; I also coached and provided technical support to the products photographers .
I directly managed external suppliers and printers (Fedrigoni, Tecnolitografica, Litotenica, Filograf, Novartigrafiche, CMYK, MANI srl, Studio 69, Sidicopy, Sign System) facilitating the collaboration between them and the project managers to deliver projects on schedule.
I was in charge to draft the budget and to check all the quotas and print quality of the material produced; thanks to the close relationship with the management, I have contributed to represent the communications office for all matters related to graphic and visual identity.
I recently create videos to sponsor new internal production machinery (managing the production and editing with software like After Effect, Final Cut or Premiere Pro). I’ve learned how to manage e-commerce websites and how to set up portals with membership system and private/dynamic contents. I also managed contacts with Microsoft Dynamics/Mailchimp, sending out newsletters I designed myself.
As Architect I’m totally independent in Land survey works, measurements, estimation, technical-administrative assistance and accounting, research, study, design for the construction and maintenance of building works and systems as well as the execution of all secondary activities included in the professional skills and use of IT tools and systems.
I often produce graphics for the stores I preject (restaurant or shop stores) and logos for these activity.
