Current occupation

trainer, youth worker, facilitator, mentor, clown

Work experience

I have been involved in non-formal education and international youth work for more than 30 years. First as participant, till becoming a trainer. I have been working as a clown and street theater performer in many different non-formal places.
I implemented and run a variety of educational activities for youngsters and adult, youth workers, educators and volunteers on national and international level working in very different contests, for National Agencies of Erasmus+ Programme, SALTO, Council of Europe, United Nation Volunteers Programme and others.
I like to use different “non-formal languages” like the theater, animation, clown, educational board games as support of learning dynamics and processes.



Educational pathway

Architecture-town planning studies, with one year of Erasmus exchange in Germany and an intership at the Danish Defence Construction Department: it was enough to understand that I am not able to build houses! 
I followed different schools, courses, stage, workshops on different artistic topics: clown, comedy, theatre, physical theatre, tap-dance, trombone, buffoons, mime, masks, puppets…with a focus on CLOWN.
Courses in Italy and abroad on youth leader, social cultural animation, group work, communication, training for trainers such as: TCIII (Training of trainers of the Council of Europe-Youth Directorate in 1998), ATTE (Advanced training for trainers in Europe 2001-2003), “Training for trainers” (APS office, psyco-sociologic Analysis Milano 2007) just to mention a few.
