Born in Milan and Puglian by adoption, at the age of 18 she made a promise to herself: to travel at least 400 kilometres every 40 days. From that moment on, she embarked on a journey shaped by university, jobs of varying degrees of excitement to fund her travels, and experiences that, from the very beginning, became opportunities for growth and discovery. After graduating in Economics in Bari, she returned to Milan to pursue a Master’s degree in Marketing and Event Management.

She then began her career in the corporate world and incentive events, while holding on to one unwavering goal: to return to Puglia and organise weddings. In 2011, she founded Evedding and, without ever leaving the corporate world behind, reached the milestone of 100 weddings organised in 2023.

Covid, which she describes as a cathartic year, became yet another opportunity for change. She moved to the Canary Islands, learnt to surf and completed a second Master’s degree in Marketing, this time remotely.

Witty like Ally McBeal, curious by nature, a traveller and sports enthusiast, she loves electronic music, the sea, gin on the rocks, books and anything capable of sending her imagination soaring, even through the simple act of reading. She believes that experiences matter more than plans and that every connection leaves something behind.

Mum to Brando, she continues to honour the same promise she made to herself at eighteen: never to stop travelling, hoping to pass on to him her love of cultural exchange and multiculturalism. And perhaps she has already written her own epitaph. She would like it to read: “I believe no one ever loved life more than she did.”
