I am passionate about education, educational guidance and experiential learning. As founder of the Mon Choix Ma Carrière initiative, I help young people, particularly girls, to discover their talents, develop their skills and choose promising careers, particularly in the STEM fields.

With my initiative, I have already reached over 800 young people through workshops, conferences and practical programmes. My commitment is based on the values of integrity, tolerance and collaboration. I have also coordinated pan-African projects such as Together for a New Africa, promoting co-leadership and sustainable development.

I am particularly interested in issues relating to innovative education, gender equality, youth, digital technology and professional integration. My aim is to transform Mon Choix Ma Carrière into an EdTech start-up to put technology at the service of guidance and education in Africa.

My training was in international relations, communications, languages and law, and I have HQ and field experience. I have been working since 2002 for NGOs and international organizations. I started in Italy within a European Commission network, following up projects in Brazil, India and Russia. My first position in Geneva was as representative of the Italian Ministry of Economic Development to Swiss and international organizations. Successive positions, for Swiss Development Agency (Rwanda), UNICEF (Mali) the EU, the UNHCR
(Greece), the International Federation of the Red Cross, enabled me to utilize my interests. These include humanitarian affairs, human rights and solution finding in line with the dignity of the human being. My work has been in the areas of public relations, communications, resource management and research.

I am a social entrepreneur and founder of Brighter Smiles, which coordinates the EVETTI project under the Erasmus+ Programme action Capacity building in the field of VET. I am a VET teacher in craft-, design and product development-. In media and communication, I am a farmer, a sailor and a fashion designer with 15 years of professional experience in the industry, working in Spain, England and Norway. I am passionate about transforming lives through education and lifelong learning and recognize the critical role of education as one of the main drivers of the development of the individual and society. I believe diverse, inclusive, and thriving local communities that contribute to sustainable production and consumption and equitable, prosperous, and peaceful societies can be achieved through co-creation and comparison with good environments at home and abroad.
