The Inner Alchemy Coach

I was born and raised in Pisa, Italy. Growing up in a family where my father was a university professor of banking and my mother a dedicated housewife, I had a strong foundation in both academia and family values. My early life in Pisa, alongside my younger brother, was marked by the tragic loss of my father in my early twenties, a pivotal moment that led me to move to London to pursue a career in banking.

I graduated with honours from the University of Pisa and furthered my education with an advanced degree from Scuola Normale Superiore S. Anna. My professional journey began in 1990, and I swiftly climbed the ranks in some of the largest investment banks in the UK, including Dresdner Bank, Lehman Brothers, and Nomura.  However, in 2009, I found myself at the centre of a major transaction that, three years later, became the subject of a criminal investigation in Italy. This event marked the end of my flourishing career and led to significant financial and personal losses. During this tumultuous period, I experienced overwhelming stress and anxiety, which led me to the transformative practice of Inner Alchemy. Since my acquittal in 2013, I returned to the financial sector with a renewed purpose, focusing on Structured Finance Advisory in Litigation Finance, assisting individuals in seeking justice against financial institutions.
