Minerva.agency is a one-person investigative practice operating through the company InSpace.Center LLC: no invented teams, no inflated case counts. A single professional, bound by professional secrecy, handling a few cases at a time with care and methodological rigour — what I discover for you stays between us.
It's a deliberate choice: the quality of the investigation before quantity. Every case file is followed personally from start to finish, with no handovers, using a transparent method that can be verified step by step, and honest communication about what is realistically possible within the limits of the law.
The path
Helvetic by birth, I grew up in a Graubünden valley at 1,291 metres above sea level. From the mountains come the measured pace and the patience; the rest was added along the way.
I started out professionally in IT and qualified as a Multimedia Producer at SAE Technology in Milan. That's where the technical skills — analysis, technology, imagery — that are now at the heart of my investigative method were formed.
For a long stretch I worked in fashion, as a sales professional for one of the world's leading luxury groups: a formidable school for learning to read people, handle demanding clients and move discreetly in environments where confidentiality is everything. In the meantime I cultivated my passion for technology and photography. Then came a period in sales for the family business, specialised in the installation of fine marble across Engadin and Ticino.
2016 was the turning point: I obtained the CPSicur certificate, profile B – Investigation, and founded Minerva as a sole proprietorship. In 2022, with the entry into force of the new Ticino regulations, I obtained the CPSicur grade III — responsible representative, the highest level of basic training — and the investigative activities were absorbed into InSpace.Center LLC, through which I operate today.
Beyond the work
The passions that fuel this website's archive are the same ones I bring to the field: photography, off-road travel, survival techniques, IT security and the study of new technologies — the crypto world has fascinated me since way back in 2016, when few people were talking about it. I practise strength sports, hike in the mountains, and have trained in Systema, a Russian martial art centred on control and stress management.
The dream in the drawer? Sailing around the world. But first, there are still a few case files to close.
For needs that fall outside my direct expertise — for example specialised technical IT security work — I say so clearly and, where possible, refer you to qualified professionals. I'd rather have a well-advised client than an engagement accepted beyond my limits.
