About

I am a communication and dissemination consultant with experience coordinating European research and innovation projects, managing work packages, supporting international consortia, and engaging stakeholders. I enjoy translating complex research and institutional messages into clear, accessible content through communication strategies, digital channels, media relations, events, and outreach activities.

My background combines project management, strategic communication, cultural policy, international relations, languages, and arts and culture management. I am an Italian native speaker with advanced English and intermediate French, and I bring a creative, collaborative, and organised approach to working with multidisciplinary teams, cultural organisations, public institutions, and research-driven companies.
