🎪 Origins & Identity Born into the vibrant chaos of the circus, I spent my early years as a fire breather, fire dancer, and stilt walker. That unique upbringing shaped my creativity and resilience. Later, I proudly served in the military to help make the world a better place. Today, I live on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺. I’m Italian-Australian and deeply proud of both my heritage and the Roman legacy I descend from.


💻 Tech & Philosophy I’m a lifelong geek who grew up with technology. I’m privacy-focused and a strong advocate for Open Source Software and Open Formats. Outside of work, I run Linux-based operating systems exclusively. I believe in digital freedom, transparency, and community-driven innovation.


🌱 Personality & Values I consider myself an optimist—someone who can find the good in any situation. My social circle is small by choice, but fiercely protected. Loyalty runs deep, and I’ll go to great lengths for those I care about. I’m not perfect—my weaknesses include beautiful women, luxury items, and a good glass of whisky 🥃.


🎧 Hobbies & Interests My passions span a wide spectrum:
Running (including marathons) 🏃
Astrophotography & stargazing 🔭
Comics & urban exploration 🏙️
Cinematography & building LEGO 🧱
Gaming (more on that below!)
Music: I enjoy nearly all genres, but especially country, classical crossover, soundtracks, and electronic. I love raves and live events, and I’m learning violin—hoping to one day play like Taylor Davis or Lindsey Stirling 🎻.

Green is my favorite color—especially Emerald, Mint, and Pine shades 💚. I’m a sucker for gimmicks: flashing LEDs, buttons, holograms—if it glows or clicks, I’m probably buying it.


🐾 Animals & Aspirations I adore animals—especially dolphins, penguins, lions, and magpies. One day, I hope to adopt a Staffy (Staffordshire Bull Terrier). I’ve never traveled outside Australia, but I dream of visiting Italy, Japan, Canada, Mexico, and Antarctica. Sailing fascinates me, inspired by adventurers like Jessica Watson and Richard Smith (the Australian entrepreneur).


🚀 Space & Science My biggest obsession is space. I grew up watching every Space Shuttle launch with awe. I believe humanity’s future lies among the stars, and our reluctance to continue the space race is one of our greatest failures. Science and exploration fuel my imagination.


🎬 Entertainment Preferences I prefer movies to TV, and Robin Williams is my favorite actor. My top films include:

TV favorites: Firefly, The X-Files, Terra Nova, Lost, For All Mankind, See, Snowpiercer. And yes—Friends is my comfort show.


🚗 Cars & VR I know little about cars, but I admire them. Dream rides include: Hudson Hornet, DMC DeLorean (DMC-12 & Alpha V), Lamborghini Diablo & Countach, Ferrari Testarossa, Lotus Elise. I’m also passionate about virtual reality and believe Holodeck-style entertainment is the future—even if I don’t live to see it fully realized.


🎮 Gaming Life Gaming has been a lifelong passion. These days, I mostly play on my Steam Deck, but I rotate between laptop and consoles. My favorite game is The Last of Us and all its remasters. Other favorites include:
