About me
Events, Feminism and Female Empowerment, are my top passions in life! I'm the Founder of We Hate Pink. I was nominated "Unstoppable Woman" by Startupitalia, one of the 1000 women changing Italy in 2022. With We Hate Pink, I'm organising meetups and webinars to increase women's access to leadership roles and create a conversation around female empowerment and gender equality in the workplace. I am also a diversity and inclusion consultant, supporting businesses to develop a diverse and inclusive workplace. I also support international companies and start-ups in building their marketing strategies and developing thought leadership in social innovation. I have been a Marketing Manager at the nexus of marketing communications for B2B events for some of the world's leading industry brands like Cannes Lions, the International Festival of Creativity, The World Architecture Festival, Drapers Fashion Retail events and Art Basel Miami. I worked in marketing and editorial for international art magazines such as V&A magazine, Contemporary magazine and Italian national newspapers like Il Messaggero e La Repubblica. I consider myself a creative, curious thinker with a background in corporate marketing, communication and editorial in Italy, Central America and the U.K. She has an M.A. in Publishing from the London College of Communication, University of Arts London and a Media Studies degree from the Universita degli Studi of Perugia, Italy. Currently, I'm attending a history course focused on the evolution of the U.S. Feminist movement, "Fighting for Equality: 1950–2018", at Columbia University. My specialities include Marketing Strategy / Product Marketing / B2B / Content Marketing / Project Management / Marketing Automation / Digital Marketing / Content Strategy / Account management / Media Partnership/ Event Management / Advertising / Proven Lead Generation / Performance reports / Google Analytics / CRM / Social Media Strategy & Measurement.

    Supporting your sista: Creating alliances with women at workAn anchor is described as an object that holds something in place. In a symbolic sense, a sister is like an anchor - someone that keeps you grounded and focused, even in the face of discouragement and defeat. When women are able to anchor each other, it is powerful, liberating, and transformative. In school, female friends are our confidantes, our safe haven and our compass for navigating life. They encouraged us, fought for and with us whenever our reputation was challenged. As we grow up, n
