With an extensive 14 years' experience in the LED optics market, I have had the chance to become a true expert in optics at LEDiL and a dedicated advocate for good lighting. As Business Development Manager I cooperate closely with customers and partners in the shared ecosystem of light. I have a background in electronics engineering, and a keen interest in advancing innovative lighting concepts for the global lighting community. With a strong focus on emerging concepts and trends, I am passionate about discussing how to perfect lighting in different applications. In the last couple of years, I have been actively involved in dialogue with both lighting designers and luminaire manufacturers around the world, discussing good lighting practices and how to harness the full potential that quality optics bring to indoor lighting applications.
