In June 2017 I’ve founded a Fablab called Fablabreno, situated in Pieve di Cento (BO), in collaboration with Gianluca Gallerani, Bartolomeo Vultaggio and the startup incubator VZ19. To date I’m the manager of Fablabreno toghether with my colleague Filippo Gamberini. The fablab has been part of the ER regional fablab network in 2019 and works in collaboration with some schools of our territory.

Thanks to Fablabreno I’ve developed nice skills in using 3D printers and laser cutters, programming Arduino and Raspberry, holding relations with schools and other entities and holding training courses.

Thanks to the relationships created through Fablabreno I’m holding courses from 2018 to now in primary school during summer camps and ordinary school periods to kids from 6 to 12 years old. I’ve teached various subjects such as 3D drawing (Tinkercad) and 3D printing, electronic (I’ve teached kids how to create a simple circuit with LED and cardboard and the basic concept of current flow), robotic and coding (scratch) and tinkering. 

In May 2019 I’ve been elected as municipal councillor from 2020 to 2025 at the city of San Pietro in Casale (BO).

This experience teached me a lot. I’ve learned to work in group and to express my opinion and listen for others without fighting to be right, I’ve learned to make arrangements with my group and I’ve met a lot of nice people. 

In 2018 I started buying and restoring tractors. It all started when my friend Nicola Barbieri called me one afternoon to work with him, from that day I started searching around to buy my own tractor and when I found it I started my first restoration. From 2018 I’ve continued this work making about two tractors per year and rising the quality of my work every time.

This experience teached me how to negotiate, I’ve partecipated to various vintage car shows and I’ve had relationships with lots of foreign people.
