3D modeler and Web Programmer
BlackRaven was a small indie software house formed by a group of close friends with the same passion about videogames. We developed and published some apps for iOS devices as well as a few pc games.
My first role was web programmer, so I created and maintained the main website in WordPress. Other than the site, I was in charge of creating databases connections for the apps we developed.
To cover for one of the vacancies in our team, I also learnt basic 3D modelling using programs like Milkshape and 3ds Max (my creations examples video).
When I think on my early years, I have always been passionate about technology and curious about how things work.
During high school I discovered the programming world. I started with basic HTML, then continued expanding my information in technology experience through the years. During these years I learned to create entire websites not only for myself, but for others.
From 2011 to 2015, I was part of an indie team based in Bologna, Italy (Black Raven). We developed small games and programs for iOS and PC. I was responsible for the design and development of the website and methods of database connection of the apps. As a secondary role, I also worked as a 3D modeler.
The years spent as part of this team enhanced my programming skills and developed the dynamics of working with a team. Thanks to this experience, I have become the programmer I am today.
In May 2015, I was offered the opportunity to work at a web agency (Magic), where I was trained on how companies develop websites and e-commerce platforms. During my three years with the company, I expanded my knowledge of WordPress, Drupal, and Magento.
In June 2018, I moved to London to expand my knowledge and increase my English language skills.
After a couple of months I joined Purr, a web agency based in central London. Since starting, there have been many interesting projects and new ways of building websites that I had never previously explored.
In May 2022, I joined Soundpickr and started working with Laravel and React.
