Born: Prato, Italy

Trained: Teatro alla Scala, Milan and English National Ballet School

Joined: 2015; First Artist, 2018; Soloist, 2019

Most important role: I feel so lucky to have danced Juliet, which has always been a dream role of mine. The feeling of being completely immersed into the story, to the point of forgetting I was performing in front of an audience, was incredibly unique and special.

Other companies: Soloist with Turkish State Opera and Ballet (2012 - 2015).

Guest performances: La Fille mal gardée and The Sleeping Beauty pas de deux with Etoile Ballet Gala in Riga, Latvia; La Bayadère with NTUA, Taiwan.
