PROGRAM LEADS

Judge with the best

OUR lEaders

Asuka Nagashima

Level 5 Japan
I am deeply committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive judge community while enhancing Magic experiences for everyone involved. I look forward to collaborating with you all to achieve these goals.

Alejandro Raggio

Level 3 Argentina
Then why are we doing this? Well, to help others, newer and/or less experienced and/or from far regions of the world that don’t have the privilege we have to be able to be staffed at major events without a certification or help from others. That’s the start point, but I hope it can turn into so much more in the future.

David Silva

Level 3 Portugal
The opportunity to serve as Program Lead for the International Judge Program is both an honor and a responsibility I am ready to embrace. Together, we can build a vibrant, resilient, and inclusive judge community that thrives in 2025 and beyond.

Alfonso Bueno

Level 5 Spain
The judge community has given me so much since I was a teenager. Judges from around the world have taught me invaluable hard and soft skills, ethics, different cultures, and languages. Most importantly, they have helped shape me into the person I am today. Now, it's my turn to give back.
I want to foster an inclusive and welcoming environment where judges support and uplift one another. By doing so, we can all grow—both as individuals and as judges—ultimately providing better judging services for players and tournament organizers alike.

Marco Boccalari

Level 2 Italy

Substitute

My experience might not be much Magic-wise, there's many judges that have seen way more things than I have, but I have been for multiple years and still am in the executive board of a chess club in my city and I believe that, when it comes to making sure associations stay afloat, this have honed my ability to navigate complex problems, collaborate effectively, and build programs that benefit the community as a whole.
