Armando Testani is Managing Editor of 8 BIT SOUL. Ever the suave debonair, he considers himself a connoisseur of the finer aspects of pop culture. An avid gamer since the day he was born, amateur comic book creator, lover of good movies and great television. That’s not to say he’s not well versed in the world of sports either, being a fanatic supporter of current Italian Serie A champions Juventus, the New York Yankees and the New York Rangers. He’s a manly geek, which bodes well for his wife and kids.
As a graduate of Ithaca College and Binghamton University, it’s fair to say that he’s done his fair share of writing over the years. As a matter of fact it’s entirely possible to say that overall he’s a well rounded individual.
