I'm an award-winning English to Italian freelance translator and a long-time gamer. In 25 years I have played countless games, from adventures to action games, from RPGs to shooters, from racing games to platforms. With time, this passion has matched my education in languages and linguistics, resulting in a keen interest in game localization. I've been localizing games for about three years now, and in 2016 and 2017 I won LocJAM3 and LocJAM4, the international game localization contests organized by the IGDA Localization SIG, with a total of 3 "Best Pro" awards. Finally, in late 2017, I created my own localization brand: Press Start to Translate. Here I make indie games come to life in the most beautiful language in the world, to help Italian gamers fully enjoy that awesome “what’s on the next level?” feeling.

If you're a developer in need of an Italian localization for your game, an agency looking for EN>IT localizers or a fellow translator who wants to get in touch, visit my website (www.press-start.it) and send me an email at hello@press-start.it. Also, feel free to take a look at my LinkedIn profile.

With my humanities background I tend to favor contents related to language, literature, culture, tourism, travels, art and architecture (I am currently the editor of The CTRL+Z Blog, the top Italian blog about visual communication and representation of architecture). I’ll delve into the topic of your text and craft for you a solution tailored to your specific needs and your target audience: my vast experience as a "foreigner" in various countries makes me well aware of the influence of cultural gaps on communication, and my long "career" as an avid reader allows me to use words in the most appropriate way, to ensure that your text serves its purpose with the most suitable style and register.
