In 2019 I decided to become freelance thinking it would be the right path for me, today, I feel it differently. Working as a mercenary, without a team, is just not for me.

But what did I do during these years?

I decided to challenge myself and create audio-video content on platforms like YouTube and podcast and music on Spotify, Google Podcast Apple podcast. On my channel, I create tutorials on the world of podcasting, audio tools and recently a new series dedicated to field recordings, both in video and audio format. In the description you can find all the links, unfortunately, the videos and the podcasts are in Italian, but you can enable the subtitles.

This fantastic experience has made me grow a lot, both professionally and personally, teaching me how to set goals, create an action plan and meet deadlines.

However, the channel is still small and unfortunately, I haven't paid my bills thanks to Youtube.

During my freelance experience, I dedicated myself to the world of audio-video content, working as a podcast editor for Social Media Hacks Italia, an online community dedicated to Social Media and Marketing training, then collaborating with Startup Geeks for the creation of their podcast show and then for smaller podcast projects.

For t years I worked as a video editor, youtube channel manager and graphic designer for Two Young Italian Entrepreneurs, a company based in Dubai that self-publishes books and audiobooks on Amazon. In addition to editing their videos, graphics and managing their youtube channel, I took care of all the audio and video editing for the training courses they launched on platforms like Kajabi.

In the summer of 2021, I worked as a video editor and graphics creator for IvoAvidhold, a company that provides cryptocurrency training courses.

In September of the same year, poof, these collaborations disappeared, without communication, a notice, nada, desaparecido.

Maybe I'll tell you this story another day...

I am also the founder of a podcast series dedicated to underground electronic music that I have been working on for 7 years with 2 close friends. My tasks are to find and contact new international artists to add to our playlist of ambient music, check the quality of the mixtapes we receive and then program and publish the final mix on platforms like Soundcloud, Facebook and Instagram.

As always, you can find the link in the description if you want to have a look at what we do.

But before you became a Freelancer, what did you do?

From 2017 to the end of 2018 I interned as a social media assistant and content creator for the University of Trieste, creating content for social, managing the Instagram profile day by day, organising conferences and events related to science dissemination and, yes the handyman: solving general issues with the software, hardware, moving things from different offices, changing and installing new pcs and the list goes on.....

The previous year I did my national civil service for the same university.

Now, perhaps, I'm going too far back, but another experience that taught me a lot about which path I wanted to take was the internship at Allianz Bank where I learned the secrets of Excel and, at the same time, I figured that being locked in an office 8 hours a day, with a jacket and tie, was not the right choice.

Finally, I've done volunteering for film associations, a seasonal bartender job for music events and a steward in the stadium for football matches. I'm 1.74 m tall imagine how scared the Ultras were of me.

That's all I've done for the last 10 years.
