About me

Antonio Cosentino

I was born and grew up in Italy, in a small town northwest of Milan.

My first "computer" was a Speak&Spell by Texas Instruments, by which I learned to read and write at the age of 5, even before starting school. It was already clear at that time that technology would play a significant role in my life.

Growing up I decided to study Electronic Engineering but in the meantime I learned the basics of Web Development and started making websites for fun.

A couple of years later I started doing this professionally and co-founded Artopweb.com, an e-commerce for Fine Art Reproductions. In the meantime I also cultivated my other big passion, Music, playing Guitar and Synths in various musical projects and releasing in total 2 records and several EPs.

I worked as a freelance Web Developer for almost 9 years, collaborating with several clients in the E-commerce and Fashion industries.

In 2016 I moved permanently to Berlin, where I joined Styla, building software for Content Management and Design Automation.

In May 2025 I joined Perspective as Senior Frontend Engineer.

I occasionally write articles about Software Development and make funny experiments on CodePen.
