Patrick was born in St.Gallen in 1988 because his Italian parents worked there. In 1992, together with his parents, he returned to Sardinia, Italy, where he grew up and achieved his bachelor's degree in electrical engineering. Patrick started his IT career in 2015, joining Accenture Technology Solutions as a Junior developer. Performing and improving his skills, Patrick joined the Salesforce CRM world, becoming a senior profile. Then, when he moved to Milan and joined Atos, Patrick started as a Tech Lead, and then he took the Project & People Manager path. Patrick has always been fascinated by project management and all the integrations required to bring up a project correctly. During his Atos time, Patrick joined and achieved an executive master's certificate at the 24Business School, focused on Project Management. Finally, in 2022, he realised his desire to return to Switzerland, moving from Milan to Zürich with his partner Marzia.
This month Patrick successfully completed the PMP exam, and he is very happy because it has been a long journey.
Patrick focused his entire career on IT, especially in CRM processes, mainly with Salesforce, working and managing Sales and Service projects. Patrick defines himself as a Hybrid Project Manager because he has a solid technical background from his Tech past. It allows Patrick to join a meeting and better understand not only the business side, but also what is necessary behind a stakeholder's needs.
Patrick joined the PMI Switzerland Chapter to expand his network, improve his project management skills, hear other experiences, and see different points of view.
Patrick is a curious person, and he loves technology and learning new things. In his spare time Patrick enjoys F1, football, and watching ice hockey matches. He loves travelling with his partner, discovering new cultures, and seeing new escapes.
