I was born in Milan, where I live with my partner Maurizio and we have two daughters.
Graduated in modern foreign languages ​​and literatures at the State University of Milan, after various work experiences as a corporate interpreter and translator, I worked for ten years as a researcher at the Cisem, Center for Educational Innovation and Experimentation in Milan, in the Gender and Education. In those years I published articles in specialized magazines and some books focused on sexuality education, citizenship, care, orientation as training for personal growth, integration and the principle of equal opportunities in the educational process, in of teachers and in textbooks. I, among others, participated in PoLiTe, a project promoted by the Ministry of Equal Opportunities and the Italian Publishers Association, to encourage the introduction of the gender perspective in textbooks.
In 2010 I obtained the Master's degree in Italian for foreigners at Ca' Foscari.  
For twelve years I have been a teacher of German and Italian for foreigners, from 2005 to 2014 I taught at the experimental school Rinascita - A. Livi in ​​Milan. Since this year I have been teaching at the Elio Vittorini scientific high school with a partial secondment to the Territorial School Office on the national project for the education of non-Italian citizens in the metropolitan area.
Elected councilor in Zone 7 in 2006 and then Provincial Councilor in 2010, since then I have been involved in the institutions of school, culture, integration, women's rights, environment and services, convinced of the need for a redevelopment of the territory that passes through processes that are not only urban planning , but also social.
I actively participated in the establishment of the Democratic Party and was elected delegate to the first National Assembly, of which I am still part now. From 2008 to 2014 I was coordinator of the PD Pio La Torre San Siro club and I actively follow the school group of the metropolitan PD, convinced that the school is the privileged observatory of social transformations in our community. Since 2014 I have been delegated to the PD Regional Secretariat for rights, legality and immigration. In 2015 I coordinated the volunteers of the refugee reception hub for the Municipality of Milan, a reality that I continue to actively follow.
In 2016 I was elected city councilor and I chair the equal opportunities and civil rights commission.
