My Story
I was born and raised in Ischia, where I still live today. Growing up on the island has given me an in-depth knowledge of Southern Italy—from the Amalfi Coast to Capri and Naples—not just as destinations, but as places shaped by culture, history, and authentic local life.
Since childhood, I have spent several weeks every winter in the Dolomites, which has allowed me to develop extensive experience in ski travel across the Italian, Swiss, and French Alps. Skiing is both a passion and an area of true expertise for me, and I enjoy curating alpine experiences that combine world-class slopes with refined hospitality.
Professionally, I am an interior architect specializing in luxury hospitality. I have overseen multiple high-end hotel renovations, combining aesthetics with functionality and guest experience. My background in design allows me to approach travel with a trained eye for detail, atmosphere, and quality.
Alongside my professional work, I am also a ceramic artist—a creative pursuit that reflects my deep appreciation for craftsmanship and timeless design.
Travel Style
My travel style is refined but deeply experiential. I love destinations that tell a story—places where design, landscape, and culture come together seamlessly.
I’m drawn to Mediterranean elegance, alpine sophistication, and hotels with soul. I appreciate beautiful spaces, but never at the expense of authenticity. For me, travel should feel effortless, curated, and immersive—whether that means a sunset aperitivo overlooking the sea, a perfectly groomed ski run followed by a fireside dinner, or discovering a small, family-run restaurant that doesn’t need a sign outside.
I believe in thoughtful luxury: exceptional service, a strong sense of place, and experiences that feel personal rather than performative. My vibe is understated, design-conscious, and quietly confident—never flashy, always intentional.
