ME IN A NUTSHELL.

I’m a professional hair and makeup artist with over 20 years of experience in the beauty industry.

My career started more than 20 years ago, when I was only 18, after a long internship in several hair salons placed in Vicenza a small city between Venice and Verona, I decided to move to Bologna with the only aim to face with a new bigger, cool and stimulating city where I could develop my talent and acquire new technical/artistic skills. 

In 2002, following some noteworthy professional collaborations, I became part of the Equipe Vittorio team where, after a year of technical and styling training, I was placed in charge as Store Manager of the Spazio Officina, a concept-store and a multi-function loft where the group's artistic and communicative work came to life. This is the ideal place to express my personality and work in direct contact with the best makeup artist and hair stylists in Italy. It was in this richly stimulating environment where my passion for professional makeup was born.

At the loft I took care of operational and administrative management, coordinating the team's work and maintaining customer and supplier commercial relationships. I collaborated in the organizing of events and vernissage and developed my passion for color and application techniques by personally taking part in beauty and fashion shows around Italy and Europe for MITU BY WELLA under the artistic direction of maestro Stefano Milani, among the most noted and quoted of Italian hair stylists.

Over the years, thanks to working with Equipe Vittorio, I perfected my technique working in numerous backstages as makeup artist and hair stylist during Milan Fashion Week catwalk parades for big fashion brands such as Laura Biagiotti, Giorgio Armani, and MaxMara. As well as having taken care of the looks of italian famous personalities. I also covered the role of personal hair stylist for Natasha Stefanenko for Sky TV production "10 years younger in 10 days".

Following this intense but wonderful experience, I returned to Veneto in 2008 where I decided to open my own studio "Estro Equipe". My mission was to introduce a new idea of beauty, mixing my stylish but uncomplicated hairstyle concept with a natural but sophisticated makeup style. 

In 2013, following an illuminating voyage to India and six years of great dedication but huge satisfaction, I chose to undertake a more relaxed lifestyle, free from strategy, emotional and less frenetic, devoting myself to working as a freelance hairstylist and makeup artist with special focus on international bridal hair and makeup services.

With over twenty years of experience, hundred of brides and published on Brides, Vogue Wedding Japan, Style Me Pretty, Wedding Chicks, Wedluxe, Green Wedding Shoes, Ruffled Blog, and Rock My Wedding, I can provide a bouquet of tailored luxury services for clients seeking a professional who can take care of any aspect related to image.

I am considered an empathetic person with a sunny disposition, gifted with strong customer relations skills, dynamic and determined with careful attention to detail.

I has always been drawn to the latest hairstyles and make-up trends and techniques (Airbrush, Arabic, Afro American, Asian) into which I love to work my own creativity and style. My curiosity always take me in search of new and high quality haircare and cosmetic products that are innovative and stylish but respectful of skin, nature and animals. 

I’m addicted to flawless skin
