Creative developer specializing in interactive installations and real-time generative visuals. With a multidisciplinary approach that merges design and art through creative coding and visual programming, producing responsive environments that evolve through human interaction and data. From large-scale LED installations to motion-tracking experiences.
I develop coded visual systems that transform abstract concepts into engaging, immersive artworks. My generalist technical expertise enables me to navigate projects from conceptual development through technical execution.

CV
IBM MASTERS INTERACTIVE INSTALLATION 2025
Built from nine years of data — 289 players, 266,939 shots — this project transforms golf history into a spatial, walkable experience. Reconstructed hole-by-hole using elevation and satellite data, every shot since 2016 is mapped to its exact position. Visitors don’t just view the past, they move through it, discovering intention, risk, and near misses.
Powered by watsonx, real-time analysis reveals new insight into legendary moments and the ones history almost forgot.
