I was born in Switzerland, my two mother-tongues are Swiss-German and Italian.

I attended all my schooling in the Italian speaking part of Switzerland.

After my banking apprenticeship in my hometown of Locarno, I attended compulsory Swiss military training in the French speaking part of Switzerland, working my way up to the rank of Quarter Master within the Swiss Air Force.Thereafter I moved to UBS’ headquarters in Zürich, working for the bank for a total of 9 years, before emigrating to Australia in January 1999. Here I attended a Travel Tourism course, but got introduced to Jeremy, who convinced me of starting a new career in the electronics industry and thus started working for Mondo in late 1999.

I implemented the early automation of quotes and was then involved in creating Mondo’s own operational system, utilizing Microsoft Access, back in 2000. I've been acting General Manager for the last 5years and I'm also part of Mondo’s sales team.

Nowadays I keep myself busy with regular ocean swims, cycling and triathlons, making the most of the great WA weather.
