Data & Innovation Director, Tech and IT
I help companies unlock growth through data strategy, marketing technology, and digital innovation. 18+ years transforming how businesses understand and engage their customers.
About
I'm a data-driven digital leader who bridges the gap between business strategy and technology implementation. As Senior Partner and Data & Innovation Director at Storeis, I lead initiatives that transform how companies leverage data, marketing technology, and emerging innovations to drive measurable growth.
My expertise spans the full digital ecosystem: from building analytics architectures and implementing enterprise MarTech stacks to developing SEO strategies and leading high-performing teams. I've delivered results for global brands including Costa Cruises (Carnival Corporation), where I managed the Adobe Experience Cloud implementation.
In 2008, I co-founded Androidiani.com with my old dear friend Andrea Baccega, growing it into Italy's largest Android community with 550,000+ members and 200,000+ daily sessions. This venture taught me how to build products that scale, engage communities, and create lasting digital impact.
In 2020, I joined Storeis as Senior Partner to follow the DATA and Tech/IT aspects, and scaling it to what it is today has been a hell of a ride. Since 2025, Storeis has been part of Cosmo5 Group, and we're ready to push even harder in this next chapter.
