Biography

Tokyo will be her third Olympic experience, another milestone in a career that began in Livorno, in the club founded by Nedo Nadi. Fencing has marked her life since he was eight years old, when she began practising fencing with her brother, Giulio. She also met the love of her life on the piste, former Italian athlete Marco Ciari. Among his many international placings, the world gold and two European titles in the team sabre stand out. With a degree in Political Science and a love of travel, she certainly won’t be a tourist in Japan.
