About Me
Hey, there! I’m a bilingual artist and designer with an Italian dad and a Canadian mom. Born in Hong Kong and raised in Milan, I moved to Canada in 2014. After earning my BFA, I began my journey in children's illustration with my first published book. Now, I handle the creative side of advertising for amazing stories. When I’m not at my desk, I love to travel, enjoy good food, and sing in the shower!

I create illustrated content, including digital comics and characters, and produce videos and animated assets for social media, along with animated covers and trailers for books. I design advertisements for Canadian outlets like the Toronto Star and prepare print-ready files for book launches, including posters, bookmarks, stickers, and occasionally tote bags and other merchandise.
