Luigi and I have partnered on different educational initiatives at IIT. Luigi is a strategic innovator who is continuously pressing forward to improve the breadth, depth, and quality of his department’s services. His passion for innovation and continuous improvement are paired with organizational savvy and an eye towards delivering what is most relevant within financial constraints. I would recommend Luigi as someone who will keep you abreast of the latest developments while offering his critical judgment which are most relevant to your organization.
Nimesh Mehta

Luigi is a great career and executive coach that knows how to make you exploit your strengths, capabilities and successes to the fullest extent. He uses your personal style to build upon managerial assets and competencies that are highly valued in corporate culture. Luigi can and will push you to your boundaries to creatively extract a detailed “self profile” that allows you to focus on your career in a “self aware” state of alignment with your style and drive.

Luigi is a detail-oriented manager who cares for his clients and does what it takes to help them succeed. He is someone whom I respect and admire and who has been there for me on a few occasions. He has the ability to put you at ease and also put the situation into perspective. He listens and hears what you say. Luigi has my highest recommendation.
