Hi, I'm Massimo Rinaldi, an Italian graphic & web Designer from Reggio Emilia. This is my personal site

Who I AM

My Name is Massimo Rinaldi and I'm a 23 year old guy form Reggio Emilia, a small city in the north of Italy. I'm interested in all that concerns design, communication, arts as well as music, cinema and literature. My job is the natural evolution of my personality. When I was 12 and I had to do an essay for school I spent more time caring for the layout of the page with Publisher than writing it. Only later I found out that I could have earned a living with this. In 2005, when I was at secondary school and my hair was pink, I managed to graduate in visual arts even if I spent school years mostly drawing instead of studying. Later on I got another degree in Graphic Design & New Media at the Istituto Salesiano of Bologna. In summer 2007 I started working for Gierre, a small advertising agency close to the city of Modena. Since January 2008 I have left the pleasant but terribly boring country of Reggio Emilia to try to make a fortune in Bologna at the agency Mediamorphosis, where I'm presently working as a graphic & web designer.

what i do

My skills range in different skills of communication, from classic desktop publishing to video and web. Probably I'd better find my way and specialize in one direction, but by now I'm trying to keep all doors open and update my knowledge as much as possibile.
