Growing up in Milan, the cultural scene was part of the day-to-day life! My interest in art and design has characterize all my life and my Italian Flair is always present in my concept work, either in residential design or in commercial project. I qualified as a quantity and Land Surveyor in Padua and as an Architect with a Master in Conservation of Heritage Buildings in Venice.
In Italy, I was initially involved in the renovation of many houses and historical buildings and I then moved to more contemporary residential and retail projects.
As an architect, I take great enthusiasm into creating and turning into reality my client’s dream home, or simply advising on the issues they might encounter during their DIY projects.
I have been a University Tutor, and I am currently involved in running several short courses and workshops. The aim of these short courses is to introduce students to the practical elements of Interior Design. I am proudly a member of National Association Women In Construction.
