A little bit about

me

Over the last twelve years, I have been collecting information, good practices, success stories, and developing skills in diverse yet complementary fields; into all of them I brought my passion about understanding, managing, valuing and improving the knowledge of groups and communities.

At the beginning of my career, Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science have made my brain curious and committed to the goal of reaching a deeper understanding of human nature. I collaborated with fellow researchers and actors of the private sector, co-authoring twenty papers and many software simulations (Python / C++) and attending conferences and meetings across Europe (MindRACES and AKIRA projects). After graduating I kept a close connection with Academia and it was between 2003 and 2007 that I had the pleasure to help five different students obtain maximum honors for their theses, developed under my supervision as a tutor. Part of the results obtained came from the strong trust put into each other during the developing of the work. Building trust and bringing out the best in others are skills that I acquired, improved and refined across ten years of practice in theater, as a performer and trainer.

In 2008, I joined the International Labour Organisation (ILO), where I had the opportunity to devote all the skills I had developed to the service of a large, not-for-profit organisation, serving a cause that I feel deeply about. My greatest accomplishment at the ILO has been the development, management and promotion of Papyrus, an organisation-wide knowledge management and sharing network, based on the open source CMS Plone, counting more than 4000 users and 20,000 documents and discussions.

Today, I am a member of UN/CEFACT secretariat and complex information problems in organisational domains are my environment.

 As a Computer Scientist, passionate about Artificial Intelligence and Knowledge Sharing, I worked in research (ISTC C.N.R. / Rome) for 4 years producing 20 scientific publications as co-author. In 2008 I found myself in Geneva, starting a new career path at the International Labour Organization, where I worked until 2014, as a consultant in Content Management Systems (first) and as a staff member in Knowledge Management (secondly). In April 2015 I joined UN/CEFACT as an Associate Database Analyst to take care mainly of the Confluence collaboration environment and of the publication of UN/CEFACT standards through the web (CCL, EDIFACT).
