Clippings
I love communicating the world of wine, food, travel, and Italy. I earned my Master's degree at the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Italy to pursue this passion, and continued my journey when I moved to NYC in 2017, where I currently work in Public Relations for exclusively wine and food clients (often Italian!).
The secret to writing good branded content and communicating clients' key messages? I find what excites me about it. Everyone has a story to tell, and stories are what form our worlds, create our communities, and captivate our interest.
Below are clippings secured on behalf of clients through my work in PR, and past work of Managing Editor, English Editor, writer, and translator.
