1 – Tell us a bit about yourself

I am a nurse and, in my free time, I love immersing myself in the beauty of the Aosta Valley, dreaming in front of breathtaking sunsets and the majestic snow-covered peaks that surround us. It truly is a small corner of paradise!

I love practicing many outdoor activities, but ski mountaineering holds a special place in my heart. Conquering the climb and then enjoying the descent is simply priceless!

4 – Why did you decide to become a RedElk Ambassador?

In 2019, together with Luca Polo and Mattia Tresca, I met Luca Colombo, CEO of RedElk. I had already appreciated the refined aesthetics of their garments, but it was when, a bit playfully, they asked me to model for their winter catalog that I truly fell in love with the brand. Seeing them is beautiful, but it is when you wear them that the real wow effect happens: advanced comfort that never sacrifices technical performance, a unique feeling that makes you feel perfectly at ease in every situation.

5 – In what way do you feel close to the RedElk philosophy?

I feel close to the RedElk philosophy because you can sense that there is love behind every garment that is created… allowing us to feel good while doing the activities we love most...

6 – What is your favorite RedElk item?

I love my ski mountaineering outfit: the ARPY jacket and PAREY pants. The jacket is windproof and waterproof, perfect for protecting me from wind and snow. The set is incredibly comfortable and high-performing, both on the ascent and during descents!

7 – Would you like to share a special memory related to RedElk apparel?

My first high-altitude achievements were always accompanied by RedElk, which therefore holds a special place in my heart. It feels like I have grown together with the brand since it was just born.

8 – What advice would you give to someone who wants to approach an outdoor sport?

It is essential to be supported by high-performance clothing like only RedElk can provide, so you are never unprepared during outdoor activities where the weather can change rapidly, especially at high altitude.

9 – What is your next challenge?

My next challenge, now that I am a mother, is to pass on the beauty of nature to my children, helping them understand how fortunate we are to be born in a magnificent place like the Aosta Valley and Italy in general, and together with RedElk explore them as much as possible.

10 – Do you have a phrase or motto that inspires you?

“You cannot add more days to life, but you can add more life to days.”
Rita Levi-Montalcini

For me, being aware of how beautiful life is and taking advantage of this magnificent gift every single day is essential.
