    Founder & CEO

    I have always been a free spirit, and in my work, I choose to immerse myself solely in projects that ignite a passion in my heart, first as a consultant and now as an entrepreneur. I let my instincts guide me, while maintaining credibility and integrity as the cornerstones of my character. Over the past twenty years, I have achieved significant milestones in the music industry. Through my collaboration with Virgin Music Italy, I have played a part in the success of many renowned artists such as Daft Punk, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, David Bowie, Peter Gabriel, Mariah Carey, Iggy Pop, Henry Salvador, David Byrne, David Sylvian, Brian Eno, Lenny Kravitz, Janet Jackson, Skunk Anansie, The Smashing Pumpkins, Jarabe de Palo, and many others. I have also introduced new talents to the Italian market, including Tiromancino, Planet Funk, Placebo, Manu Chao, Chemical Brothers, and Kings of Convenience. As the founder of Surya Musica, I have helped artists like Juty Ranx and Milky Chance achieve platinum and gold records. Today, I am fully committed to realizing my vision with Maya Sound.
