Born a singer and song-writer, poems were my first literary love and object of obsession in my literary studies. No matter how much I idolize rugged, intellectual free verse, rhythm and rhyme cheat their way into my poetry. 

A fairytale about childhood trauma, “The one who didn’t get away” tells the story of the impact a shattered vase and absent parent have on a peculiar protagonist. Published first in the Women Writing Berlin Lab publication Movement in 2019, it was re-edited for this publication. 

Everybody has a story to tell. That is why I love to portray people that have inspired me personally and tell their stories. Read about the art of fearlessness, the harsh female realities of C-level management, growing up LGBTQ+ in conservative Italy and more.
