Danilo Lapegna, a former memory champion featured on TV at just six years old, combines his background as a computer engineer with years of experience leading high-impact software teams in the UK’s competitive startup scene.
For over a decade, writing under the pseudonym Yamada Takumi, he has shaped the “Kintsugi Scientific Quality Standard,” producing self-published works on learning and human potential that have sold over 50 000 copies and topped Amazon charts, earning recognition for their clarity and practical impact.
Today, alongside his dedicated scientific team, Lapegna continues to advance the Kintsugi Project, envisioning a future grounded in critical thinking, lifelong learning. But above all, meaningful living that's supported by proven, science-based tools.
