Personal

When I'm not working or coding, I train, go to the mountains, read, play games, and spend time with my cat. Pretty simple.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

This is my main thing outside of work. I've been training for a while and I'm currently a brown belt. BJJ is one of those sports where you never really feel like you've figured it out, which is exactly what I like about it. It's physical, technical, and you have to think constantly.

Cicio

His name is Yago, but we call him Cicio. He's a black cat, deeply suspicious of the world in general, but completely transformed around his two humans. Terrified of everything, endlessly cuddly with us. He's also my default work companion. If I'm at the desk, he's on my lap.

Mountains

The Valle d'Aosta is a place I've been going to since I was a kid, with my parents. It stuck. In summer I hike and go up to the mountain huts; in winter I go snowshoeing. It's one of those places where I genuinely disconnect. There's something about being at altitude with nothing urgent to do that I haven't found anywhere else.

Video Games

Mainly RPGs. I like games with a good story and a world that feels real. The more lore, the better.

Fantasy and Science Fiction

I read a lot, mostly in these two genres. Books, comics, graphic novels. I like fiction that takes its own rules seriously and builds something consistent with them. The same goes for films: if the world is well-built, I'm in.

I also spent years playing tabletop RPGs. They hold a special place for me.
