Before moving to the U.S., I used to work for the American Embassy in Rome.
For almost three decades, I led the counseling and programming designed to support U-M students preparing for and applying to medical school, law school, and other graduate programs.
I was born and raised in Rome, Italy, so I have a deep knowledge of the Italian language and culture. I welcome the opportunity to share my “Bel Paese” with other Wolverines!
