Born between threads, fabrics and club beats, I’m a fashion designer and product developer based in Milan, with a heart split between Italy and London. I love turning ideas into reality — from DJ collab capsules to bespoke wedding pieces — always blending craftsmanship, experimentation and a playful sense of style. My world spins around crochet, sewing, pattern making and 3D design, where tradition meets innovation in every stitch. I’ve collaborated with brands like Antonioli, Lisa von Tang, Liquorish and House of Holland, learning to move between aesthetics while keeping my curiosity (and my pins) sharp. Now I focus on project-on-demand creations, from special occasion looks to creative capsules — because for me, fashion is all about rhythm, connection and personality. **UX Designer** Airbnb Inc. _January 2019 - March 2019_
