Silvio has excelled as both a mentor and leader within our team. He champions complete transparency in his interactions, ensuring that everyone is aligned and collaboratively striving towards a common objective. His leadership abilities shine through in his dedication to empowering each team member to reach their utmost potential. Silvio is adept at offering insightful feedback, covering both technical aspects and communication skills. He embraces the role of providing constructive criticism and, with his sense of humor, has transformed our workspace into an environment that is not only professional but also warmly personal. I consider myself fortunate to have encountered a manager like Silvio early in my career, who has significantly contributed to my personal and professional growth.

Silvio's an amazing, genuine human being and am very lucky to have had the chance to connect with him recently. He generously spent time providing actionable, relevant insights on design leadership and career transitions, is unafraid to share his mind and assessments. We need more design leaders like him who see (and can connect) the big picture.

I recently attended a workshop led by Silvio, and it was a truly enlightening experience. His expertise in design thinking and his understanding of design maturity were deeply inspiring.

Silvio's design thinking is profound and insightful. I found myself thinking back to our conversations weeks later while facing another design challenge. His ability to gently challenge my assumptions made our UX an order of magnitude better.

Silvio's skills as a UX designer are beyond remarcable and he is both highly professional and extremely pleasant to work with.
He combines a keen empathic approach that factors qualitative information with strong engineering background that roots the analysis process in quantitative data and provides solution that are both effective and realistic from a technology standpoint.
He is easy to work with as he factors not only the UX challenges of the end user but the business priorities that affect the sales process and listens to the client, guiding him/her towards finding common grounds.
His mentoring has helped us solve some of our key UX challenges and our client's feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
