I'm a designer from Italy, living in the mountains near Turin. My journey began at age 6 with playful collages in MS Word, where Clippy once asked what I'd like to do, and I answered, "this, for life." I’ve been hooked ever since. I craft visual identities for brands, driven by creativity and fresh ideas. Alongside design, I’m passionate about writing and often take on copywriting projects. I love collaborating with clients, sharing the process to help them achieve their vision. With agency experience behind me, I now work independently and dive into personal projects with fellow creatives. Feel free to reach out for work, collaborations, or just to say hi! ♥

Illustration and Emanuele Ferrari
The search for my creative identity led me to illustration, where I embraced a raw, simple, and spontaneous style. Collaborating with Milanese photographer Emanuele Ferrari, who’s worked with Vogue and Elle, also allowed me to dive deeper into the emotions and nuances that shape the creative process.
