ABOUT ME
In today’s world, we often introduce ourselves by what we do—our profession, our accomplishments—as if that is what defines us. But I believe that our true identity goes far beyond what we achieve. For me, that identity is clear: I am a daughter of God. Everything I do, every word I speak, and every project I undertake is a reflection of this truth. My greatest desire is to make His love known, using every platform He has given me to reach hearts and transform lives.
Together with my husband Nicola, we are blessed with three beautiful daughters: Matilde, Adelaide, Dorotea
A JOURNEY OF FAITH
I had the incredible privilege of growing up in a Christian home—something quite rare in Italy. During my teenage years, I experienced a transforming encounter with Jesus that changed the course of my life. Even though I often prayed for God to “make me invisible” as a child, He led me in a completely different direction, opening doors to social media and online platforms.
What began as a simple blog soon flourished into a large community. In 2018, I was recognized as one of the Top Family Influencers in Italy, leading to collaborations with major fashion brands, the creation of my own clothing and jewelry line, and the publication of my autobiographical book, where I shared openly about my faith.
About me
A Call to Serve
In the summer of 2023, during a mission trip to the Dominican Republic with Compassion International, my heart was deeply moved. It was there that I clearly understood that God was calling me to surrender everything to Him—my life, my career, and my platform. From that moment on, I decided to devote all my social media presence to sharing the message of Jesus Christ.
This choice came with sacrifices, including the loss of many “secular” collaborations, but I am confident that God has called me to reach millions of Italians—especially women—with the hope of the Gospel.
My Mission
My purpose is simple:
“To make Jesus known and to bring His hope to every heart.”
Whether through social media, missions, or personal encounters, I strive to be His hands and feet, sharing the love and truth of Christ wherever He leads me.

“When He saw the crowds, He had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.” — Matthew 9:36
Compassion International
I have the honor of serving as the Ambassador for Compassion Italy, working to bring hope and practical support to children living in poverty.

La conferenza delle chiese Elim che si sta svolgendo in questi giorni a Palermo sie’ confermata un momento di grande visione e condivisione, nel quale abbiamo avuto l’onore di presentare il progetto Edizioni Umanità Nuova. Inoltre intervenendo nella sessione inaugurale della conferenza, Alessandro Iovino ed Ilaria Di Vaio, hanno lanciato il libro del pastore Tim Dilena, di Times Square Church, che alla fine si è intrattenuto per un firma copie, e poi è stato riproposto un classico della letteratura cristiana ma con una nuova veste grafica: “La croce ed il pugnale” di David Wilkerson.
Un’occasione significativa per ribadire l’impegno nel raccontare vite trasformate, con una voce nuova, autentica e capace di incidere nel presente e proiettarsi nel futuro.
