Reading, play and study video games and video games hystory, math and science, martial arts, cinema

I am a passionate reader and range from fiction to non-fiction. as regards the second, my references are very basic mathematics and science books and texts regarding game design and narrative design.

I love watching films and looking for as much information as possible on how certain titles were born and what happened behind the scenes during production.

I have practiced martial arts for more than 25 years, ranging from judo, karate and kung fu, also experimenting with combat sports such as kick boxing.

My greatest passion remains video games. I started playing them when I was 3 years old and I haven't been able to stop since. I try to experiment with all the genres out there and in recent years I have started studying how they are born and developed. It would be a dream for me to be able to enter the video game industry and use all my creativity to produce new ones.
