About me

With over 21 years of experience as a graphic and web designer, and over 8 years as a system administrator, I have developed a unique combination of creative and technical skills that enable me to deliver high-quality solutions for various clients and projects. I am passionate about creating original and functional designs that communicate effectively and enhance user experience, as well as managing and maintaining hardware and network systems that work smoothly and efficiently.

As the owner and founder of Bearded Guy Studio, I have worked with multiple clients across different industries, such as , eToro, XFM Radio, and The Economic Update Magazine. I have designed and developed logos, branding, apps UI, websites UI, flyers, posters, adverts, web banners, and more, using various tools and platforms, such as Adobe Creative Suite, Unreal Engine 5, and Google Web Designer. As a system administrator at VJ Salomone Group, I have managed, supported, and upgraded the technology infrastructure of the company, as well as installed and maintained the office365 system. I have also diagnosed and solved problems quickly and effectively, using my knowledge of AD and Exchange.
I am always eager to learn new skills and technologies, and to challenge myself with different projects and tasks. I have completed several courses and certifications, such as the OTHM Level 5 Diploma in Information Technology, the Unreal Engine 5 (UE5): The Complete Beginner's Course, and the MCP Windows 2000 / XP issued by Microsoft. I have also been recognized for my work, such as being nominated for a WEB UI Award and winning the second place in the Malta Gamezing Awards for mobile game. I am a driven, collaborative, and versatile professional, who strives to deliver excellence and value in everything I do.
