About me

I sold cheese and luxury foods, managed salespeople and IT projects, and volunteered for more than ten years at Italy’s largest literary festival. Along the way I studied Politics/IR and Economics; I now study Inequality at LSE.

I love food, good writing and memorizing random bits of information; I don’t like boring food, academic jargon and losing at Trivial Pursuit family matches.

While working in the private sector in Italy and the UK, organizing and delivering training to colleagues became second nature. This constant drive to better understand and better explain brought me back to education, and then to LSE LIFE.

I believe that LSE can offer much more than just academic knowledge: in their time here, students might learn about themselves more than they learn about the outside world. My goal is to help them like others have helped me, and point them to the best cheese shops in London.
