Tell us about yourself and what got you interested in drawing
Who were some of your early inspirations?
What are some of your favorite projects you’ve worked on?
Can I say all? Hahaha, Hmmm I think Stake, which I'm still working on. It's my favorite baby! I felt very connected to this project from the first script, but I really have loved them all. Another of my favorites is the collaboration with my husband in Can I Scream? Every project is interesting because, especially when you create interiors, it pushes you out of your comfort zone and you learn new things. It's beautiful.
Favorite character(s) to draw?
I'm a fan of dark, gothic.... so I will say all the Sandman universe, in particolar Death and Delirium, I also enjoy drawing Harley Quinn, Elektra and Catwoman.
What are you currently working on?
I'm currently working on Stake #8 and few other projects that unfortunately I can't say anything on yet... but I have a new cover for BOOM! Studios coming soon and an interesting cover for Sumerian Comics. Ok ok I can't say more, sorry.
Where can fans find you?
I'm almost on all social media platforms. Facebook, X, Bluesky, Treads, but the one I like the most and I use as my main is Instagram.
