Solutions Architect at DAZN | Google Developer Expert
I’m an Italian passionate Solutions Architect with more than 10 years of experience on front end technologies, in particular on Javascript, HTML 5, Haxe, Flash, Flex, AIR, Lua and Swift. I've often been involved in cutting edge projects for mobile (iOS, Android, Blackberry), desktop, web, TVs, set top boxes and embedded devices. I think the best way to use any programming language is mastering their models, that’s why I spent a lot of time studying and researching on topics like OOP, Functional programming and Functional Reactive programming. With these skills I’m able to swap quite easily between different programming languages applying the best practices learnt and drive any team to the success. I’m a natural leader, delivery focus, a problem solver and a game changer, I use my passion on any aspect of the work from the flow definition to the automation process. I try to cover any detail to improve the company standards, empower the teams and deliver great products. I'm certified as: Certified Scrum Master and SAFe Agilist, Adobe Certified Expert and Instructor on Flash, Flex, AIR; Adobe Community Professional, Adobe Italy consultant. I wrote for national and international technical magazines and editors, I'm also technical reviewer for Packt Publishing, Pragmatic Bookshelf and O'Reilly. I'm speaker for national and international conferences or community events like O'Reilly media webinars, FullStack conference, React London UG, Scrum Gathering, Lean Kanban United Kingdom, Mobile World Congress, Flash Camp, 360 Flex, Better Software, Pycon and so on. In 2013 I organised an itinerant event in 6 different cities in Italy called "Having fun with Adobe AIR" where people learnt how to develop mobile applications for iOS, Android and BlackBerry with Adobe AIR and Starling. In 2015 I started the London JavaScript Community organising a monthly meetup event about the most "hot topics" in the JavaScript world.

Reactive Programming will be the next hot topic of this decade, understanding now how this paradigm works and when to use it will grant you great benefits for your asynchronous applications. In this talk I’ll introduce you to what Reactive Programming is guiding you trough this new dimension simplifying the learning curve and providing a real example to analyse during the talk and also after it. I’ll show how Model View Intent architecture works in order to structure your front end reactive applications with Cycle.JS
