About me
I was born in Bologna and raised in Bassano del Grappa, a small town in northern Italy. Back in the day, one of my biggest childhood passions was horseback riding. I was competing at an international level when I started developing an unhealthy relationship with myself, food and my body. And this is where my health journey begins.
It took me about a year to realize the vicious cycle I was living in. I then decided to turn that negative relationship into actual nutritional studies with a particular interest in functional nutrition, consisting of the use of nutrients, food combinations and cooking methods to reach our physical and mental well-being. I quickly discovered the fascinating connection between food and the human body, a perfect machine. After all, we are what we eat, and there is nothing more true.
I was just 16 when I decided I wanted to be a dietician, and since then, my dream has never changed. Italy didn’t quite feel like the right place at that time and I decided to move to the other side of the ocean, the US!
I began my studies at Boston University, earning a bachelor’s degree in Nutritional Sciences. From there, I fulfilled my dream of attending New York University, where I completed a master’s degree in Clinical Nutrition, along with a 1200-hour clinical training program at Montefiore Medical Center. During my academic experience, I worked in the clinical setting at the Massachusetts General Hospital as an intern dietician for veterans and in Shanghai at VCleanse, the leading company for the production of cold-pressed juices in China. I also worked as a nutrition content creator for Avocaderia, the first avocado-based restaurant in the world, and as a health coach for 752 Wellstar, an Italian wellness streaming channel.
Upon receiving my license, I immediately started my career as a Clinical Dietitian, focusing on acute care at Lenox Hill Hospital in the Upper East Side of New York City. Meanwhile, I decided to expand my practice online and I founded my Online Private Practice, where I find myself today. My mission? To help women elevate their health journey, transforming their body and mind from the inside out.
MY METHOD: I integrate the most up-to-date science in the field of integrative medicine with the wisdom of herbalism and Traditional Chinese Medicine. My approach centers on holistic healing, addressing the root cause from within and nurturing a positive mental state.
