I am a fashion designer, but I strongly trust my creativity and my way of seeing life across all areas of design. I specialize in fashion photography and styling, while also enjoying painting and creating prints by hand. I am deeply interested in discovering the visual identity of each project, building coherence and aesthetics that reflect my personal style. My work goes beyond the visual — I am always driven by the need to tell a story, develop a concept, and communicate a message.…I am a fashion designer, but I strongly trust my creativity and my way of seeing life across all areas of design.
