Description

PROFILE

I am an Art Director and Illustrator originally from Italy. Insightful ideas and great craft to me are like spaghetti

and tomato sauce. Working in NY for 6 years as a storyboard artist with a variety of agencies and productions.

I discovered my passion and skills in art direction. Life in Rome, Milan and Cape Town, working as a children’s

book illustrator and in the fashion industry, informed me on flexibility, collaboration and inclusivity.

I am passionate about using my art direction & illustration skills to create engaging content and film.
