Data and contact details

Being born in a city like Rome definitely influenced my course of study. I am an art historian (I was Giuliano Briganti’s student) and a licensed touristic guide.

Actually, in hindsight, all my professional path has been conditioned by the search of beauty and the passion for its divulgation, two aspects that amplified each other, becoming inseparable.

This inevitably led me to teaching in many public schools and recently also in the School of Arts and Crafts of Rome.

Simultaneously, I collaborated for a decade in the teaching activities with the Ministry of Culture at the Soprintendenza Archeologica dell’Etruria meridionale and with various travel agencies, cooperatives and cultural associations. I also did some voluntary collaborations for the Roma Tre University.
Since I’ve always been a lover of writing, I wrote numerous articles for both specialized and educational magazines, such as Roma Sacra, Romavision, Italyvision, La Quarta, Lazio ieri e oggi, and also scripts for audio guides aimed at children and adults.

I published two books: one intended for children Piccoli turisti alla scoperta di Roma (Edilazio,2017); the other, an essay dedicated to the baroque artist Marco Tullio Montagna (Cori 1584-Roma 1649): le origini coresi e annotazioni sulla sua attività romana (Il Levante, 2022).

In 2020, in the middle of the COVID era, I created the blog Meetart -incontri d’arte, with the interviews given by painters, sculptors, comic artists, and street artists both up-and-coming and affirmed. In this context, I organized and curated three online group expositions:

My ultimate goal, always coherent with my professional research, is to convey the passion for beauty, in accordance with Degas’ popular quote: “art is not what you see but what you make others see”.
