About

I live in California and I'm designing a robotic hand at Foundation. I previously worked on the hand for Optimus and on charging technologies at Tesla. I studied Industrial Engineering at MIT and Mechanical Engineering at PoliTo.

I like to work on novel technologies that require creativity and first-principles thinking rather than imitation of existing solutions, and that can have a real impact on the course of civilization.

Engineering is the highest form of art.
