Summary

A data driven mind with a strong passion for iGaming.

I have been part of the iGaming industry since 2017, being in the bright side (working for LeoVegas) since 2023 but I grew up in the dark side as a bonus hunter and sport arber starting from 2017.

This on field experience and knowledge (both from a customer and company perspective), mixed with my statistical background and my data driven attitude, is a strong combination that allows me to be very effective on my business analysis, while keep having an external view of the picture. Also I truly believe in scalable approaches where simplicity and effectiveness rule.

I have a great knowledge of Casino, Live Casino and Jackpot products (being both a player and an analyst) and a quite good knowledge of Sports, Poker and Virtual Games (mainly from a player perspective).

Also, as a former bonus hunter I have great expertise to help the company reducing the costs and being more effective when it comes to bonus and retention areas.
