He gained the doctorate in “The Sciences of Communications” in 2002 subsequently attaining the academic title of “Cultore della Materia” in Italian Style and rethoric thanks to his doctorate thesis “Aviano, style and communication. One newspaper, two cultures, many messages”.
Still living in that aeronautically-lucky area, he joined Air Forces world working on military graphics -mostly patches and aircraft profiles- since 1994. Through the years he worked also as freelance graphic designer collaborating with advertisment/communications agencies into civilian market and military one, becoming co-author of some books too. After this he decided to found OKB01 and totally dedicate his life, aviation knowledge, communication and graphic skills to World Air Forces men and women who wants to improve their Squadron's image and communication with style, creativity and quality using items showed into OKB01 website. Mauro lives and works in a very small town on montanious Pre-Alpine Area of the Treviso Province (Veneto Region, Italy) in company of his black kitty named “Pina”, other randagious cats and its “gang-of-the-woods” composed by wild hedgehogs, bambies, wildhogs, mices and owls which often visit his garden -to be feeded- mostly by night.
