Her sensitivity towards the issue of reuse has been strong since the early years of university, where she proposed several projects using waste material. She developed her thesis in India, where she had the opportunity to face the themes of urban regeneration and reuse under an entirely new profile, seen from the perspective of the megalopolis of Kolkata. Coming back to Italy, she obtained a second level master's degree in urban planning where she focused on the functional reuse of some assets taken away from the Camorra, followed by a period of work in an architectural firm of the capital, always leading her upcycling interests.
