I was born in Finale Ligure (SV), Italy in 1985.
I have been drawing since ever: I was just a child, when I took for the first time a pencil in hand and I realized how much I was in love with illustration.
During my university studies in Industrial Design and Graphic Design, I discovered and also explored with passion the digital drawing. I started my professional career as a freelance art director and graphic in several advertising studios in Genoa.
Illustration has always been my passion and the mix between “rough ink” and the digital processing has become my distinguishing feature.
I currently live with my boyfriend and my friends (but also wonderful colleagues) in Genoa where I also work as a freelance illustrator and graphic for individuals, firms and agencies.
