Projects
Projects & highlights
A selection of things I’ve built, studied or helped others achieve – from quality and product development to student food innovation and home-lab experiments.
Professional focus
Industry · Quality assurance
Beverage quality at scale
Quality compliance in an international beverage environment: supplier and co-packer standards, audits, traceability and quality data that help teams make faster, better decisions.
R&D · Product
Product creation
From concept to shelf: formulation, shelf-life thinking, lab testing and the balance between taste, cost, process and safety.
Regulatory · Labelling
Labels that tell the truth
Ingredient lists, allergens, nutrition declarations and claims checked against EU food law, so that what is on the pack matches what is in the pack.
Calma Hotels · Valencia
Gastronomy on the business side
Planning the offer of a new gastronomic venue: supplier and raw-material checks, HACCP, food cost and less waste.

Research internship
Laboratory research at the Institute of Agrochemistry and Food Technology of the Spanish National Research Council, funded by a JAE Intro scholarship.
2019–2023 · UPV
Fornejant Ciència
Board member of the university’s food-innovation association, where I also managed the website.
2017–2026 · Italy & Spain
JA Italia & Startupper for a Day
I started as a student in Impresa in Azione (third prize) and became a coach: my teams won two national first prizes. I then co-founded Startupper for a Day, a nonprofit that brings students into startups for a day, and led its expansion to Spain.
Ongoing · Home lab
Experiments for curiosity
Bread, home-made mozzarella and kombucha, a small hydroponic garden monitored with ESP32 sensors and Home Assistant, and the odd reformulation just to see what water activity does. Failures included.
2026 · This website
A playground made with care
Rebuilt with native WordPress blocks, a hand-made design system and a structure that search engines and AI assistants can read easily. No page builder, no web fonts, fast by default.
Let’s talk food quality.
A question about food safety, a project idea, a talk – or just a ciao from a fellow food person? I read every message.
