I was born and raised in Italy, now I live in the winter wonderland that is Finland. I worked as a mathematics researcher, an IT project manager and consultant, and now I work as product owner. I love nature, reading books, playing boardgames, cooking and eating good food. I enjoy learning languages: I speak Italian, English, Finnish, Hindi, and I understand some Spanish. I am grateful to have three wonderful kids who call me "mamma". One came from my belly, the other two from fateful encounters.
