Gilberto Crippa

Domenico is an enterprising engineer with sound and broad technical knowledge. He likes challenging tasks that he attends applying a personal touch. He is capable to work under pressure and often delivers quality results before the due time. Skilled software programmer, he has achieved notable results in the domain of fatigue analysis coding algorithms now used in the company for damage tolerance computation. I have no hesitation to recommend him although I hope he will continue to work in my group.

David Bucca

Domenico is a leader in his profession and an engineer with the utmost integrity. I would recommend Domenico to any organization looking to seek motivated leaders that will actively participate in the development of the company's capability and require a strong foothold in the expertise of static, fatigue and damage tolerance structural engineering.
