Francesco Izzo is Italian 100%, born in Milan and grew up between Milan, Rome and the beautiful south of Italy. This mixture of Italian cultures and his studies took him to develop a passion for art as way to communicate to others.

After graduating in industrial design he looked for his path and grabbed a chance to move to US where he started a terrific hands-on experience as designer in a medical company for two years.

Francesco found himself more and more passionate in his job dealing and sharing with other people, other cultures and backgrounds.

Realizing he needs to discover even more, in the midst of everything the MFA Design as Author appeared to be the right place to go, a place where he can take a chance and see more deeply what his design passion is about. Willing to be guided by that.
