Italian father, Scottish mother. Raised in Italy, at 17 she moved to the United Kingdom to complete her studies and to dedicate herself more deeply to eventing.

Now at 37, and with a degree in Biology from the University of Bristol in her pocket, she returns to represent Italy at the Games for the third time since Beijing 2008 and London 2012. Passionate about polo and a lover of the countryside, the Italian rider jumps into the saddle on Super Cillious.
