Roots
Turin, Italy

Study
At the Bern University of the Arts I completed a Master’s degree in Musical Performance and a Master’s degree in Music Education. At the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis I am currently specializing in the transverse flute.

Professional
I am a flute and music teacher in Fribourg, at the schools La Concordia and Les Traits d’Union. I also work on repairs of wind instruments in the “Klingende Sammlung” in Bern and in the Musikhaus Hirsiger in Worb.

Why
I chose these professions because I have always felt comfortable playing historical instruments and teaching or interacting with children and really being myself.

Elective Affinities
Another great passion of mine are animals, first of all my favorite animal, my dog Kiki. She does not like untuned flutes when she is at rehearsals with friends or colleagues.
