Biography
She started swimming at the age of five, following in the footsteps of her sister Lara, who, like her, also practised skiing. She committed herself, grew up, achieved results even as a child, but never stopped studying. Indeed, after high school she enrolled in the Faculty of Dentistry at La Sapienza University in Rome. She is inspired by Federica Pellegrini and describes herself as humble, determined, superstitious and fair. At the World Championships in Doha, Qatar, in February 2024, she won the Olympic berth for Paris 2024 alongside her teammates in the 4x100 freestyle relay: it will be her first Olympics and a dream come true.
