Good Mood Energy

Twenty-two-year-old Samuele Sciacca is proud of his humble origin. He worked hard and transformed his great passion into a job. And his enthusiastic words, full of passion and energy, transmit his good mood to anyone listening to him with a simple “Hi.”

After graduating from the Istituto tecnico Jaci in Messina at 18 anni, Samuele moved to Milan to look for jobs in the videogame sector. “I was still very green.
