How important is music to you/why: Music is essential in my life since it provides me with comfort when I’m feeling anxious or upset and it is also one of the ways through which I express myself.
Can you share with us something curious/funny which happened to you when performing: When I was still very young at the very beginning of my career, I once forgot the lyrics during a singing competition. I also have a photograph in that moment of panic, which means I will never forget it!
From the current Konkors Kanzunetta Indipendenza 2015 finalists, who would you choose to duet with/why: I would choose to duet with Rita Pace who is my singing teacher and also a very good friend of mine.
A typical weekday for you from morning to night: In Summer, when I’m not occupied with work, I usually wake up quite late. During the day, I enjoy going to the beach. In the late afternoon, I also like going for a walk or a jog around my hometown. At night, I either stay indoors with my family or meet up with a couple of friends for a BBQ or a drink.
How do you like to spend your weekends: I usually work in the morning or the afternoon, and I also attend classes with Teatru Manoel Youth Theatre. At night, I like eating out at some restaurant or chilling in a winebar with my loved ones.
Your musical influences: Ed Sheeran, Maroon 5, Enrique Iglesias... too many to mention!
Your inspiration in life: My parents, who have always put my sister and I above everything and who have always managed to balance their work life with their life at home.
