Born and raised in Venice, I obtained my master degree in Art History the Ca' Foscari University of Venice, and my tour guide license in 2009. During my studies, I had several experiences abroad, which gave me an international mindset. Passionate by paintings, I also work as a professional paintings restorer. I own a restoration laboratory where I operate on oil paintings on canvas and polychromed wood sculptures. It had been 5 years now I am doing painting restoration and it had been a real delight. I always believed that being a guide was the most interesting and fascinating profession in the world. I am today member of some of the most important professional associations of tour guides, as Venezia Arte and Promoguide. For me it’s a chance to tell and show how spectacular my city is. Through this job my biggest passion comes alive, so this is an expression of my passion for my city and art in general. I love going to the museums, admiring different interiors, as well as visiting public and private collections. I also like churches, paintings and sculptures. My favorite museum is the Ca’ Rezzonico and my biggest passion is about my job, both as a guide and as a restorer. Besides my two jobs, I really love travelling and discovering new places with their artistic history, their local culture and legends. Today, I organise tours in Venice and in the Veneto, focusing on connoisseurs visitors, but I also enjoy guiding families.
