[my photo goes here] My family originates from Trentino, in Northeast Italy, and I grew up in Virginia. I'm currently based in the San Francisco Bay Area after living for almost seven years in Los Angeles. Prior to that I lived for quite awhile in Ann Arbor, Michigan (graduate school). I miss the great friends I made while attending the University of Michigan. A few things I really enjoy are international travel (Asia and Europe top the list so far), music, biking/hiking, food, soccer (my team is Internazionale), computers (and software development), cars and motorcycles (which you may have seen, have their own sections!). You can also find me online at Facebook and LinkedIn. An especially inspirational photo:
