A degree in Business Administration, a professional life in the world of Communication and Marketing and a great passion for my land, Friuli Venezia Giulia, a border region between East and West, a crossroads of peoples, cultures and destinies. To these places and their stories of silent beauty, I devote this project: small and large testimonies of life, often unconventional, united by respect for ethical, social and environmental values and the hope of nurturing connections and meaningful relationships between people.
