I am a psychotherapist, currently working as Deputy Head of Student Counselling at the University of Bristol.

I was born in Torino, Italy, where I started my studies in History with a year abroad at the Université de Bourgogne in Dijon, France. After my studies, I worked in a EU-funded youth programme in Luxembourg, promoting inclusion for disadvantaged children and young people.

I moved to the UK to start my training as a psychotherapist. I initially volunteered as a counsellor in different places in London, then started working at the University of Bristol.

I'm interested in yoga, languages, research, politics, gardening and all sort of other things.
