"At just 13 years old, my teacher recognized the spark of a child prodigy in me. She pointed toward the Accademia Carrara—the heart of Italian artistic heritage—as my natural path. But life did not grant me a choice.
Being part of a family business meant carrying a weight of responsibility that superseded personal ambition. I was obliged by circumstance to set aside the pencil and cover my hands in flour instead. For forty years, I honored that family bond, working relentlessly and silencing the gift that pulsed beneath the surface.
On April 25th, 2025, after four decades of selfless dedication, the silence finally broke. I returned to graphite with the urgency of someone reclaiming lost time.
