Manager, Digital Content, AVIXA

As AVIXA's manager of editorial content, I bring to the role fourteen years of marketing experience and ten working predominantly in editorial and video content. I've spent many years in the entertainment industry working for Nickelodeon, Lucasfilm, Disney, and even a small theater in the heart of Florence, Italy. I love great stories and finding the perfect hook. I am also a stop-motion animation aficionado who makes puppets and writes books. And a lover of food... all kinds of food.
