ABOUT

Born and raised in Genoa, Italy, I grew up with a strong sense of independence, curiosity, and a natural drive to evolve. Staying in one place— or doing only one thing — was never my path.

From an early age, I lived and worked abroad in England, Australia, California, the Cayman Islands and Hawaii. Although I studied business management and international trade and marketing for the fashion industries, I was always drawn to the creative process—combining color, texture, and form across clothing, interiors, objects, and food.

SELECTED EXPERIENCES

My work has developed across fashion, publishing, interiors, and production, each experience strengthening both my aesthetic sensibility and my ability to execute.

Worked in Merchandising and Production at DKNY Active Division
19 years as New York Bureau Senior Editor for Collezioni, an international fashion and design publishing group (10 titles). Covering fashion shows, trade fairs, and events across prêt-à-porter, haute couture, bridal, accessories, interiors, baby and kidswear, tabletop, and textiles
Producing and styling editorial photoshoots—fashion, beauty, lifestyle, food, and interiors—for Vanity Fair Italy, Bon Appétit, Real Simple, Parents, and The New York Times Magazine
Worked with a luxury interiors firm in New York City
Founding Affinità Moderne, a custom-made home linens brand featured in AD, Vogue Bambini, Elle Decor, and Interior Design

To complement this experience, I trained in floral design at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, completed a culinary apprenticeship at the Natural Gourmet Institute in New York, and undertook STCW Basic Safety Training at Maritime Professional Training in Florida, preparing me to collaborate on creative services for yacht interiors.

Today, I divide my time between New York City, Italy, and Mexico City and speak Italian, English, Spanish, and French.
