About me
Hi! I'm Italian, and I've been a steady presence in the Wikimedia Movement since ca. 2005 (former admin at
Italian Wikipedia
and
Commons
; main focus on
copyright problems
communicating with our readers and content donors
partner institutions
). Read more at
my volunteer userpage
. I use that account for all my volunteer work on the wikis.
I can read a few languages, and Italian is my mother tongue. I find that, despite everything,
English is a good common ground to communicate
, so nobody needs to apologize while making the effort to use it. I truly welcome anyone's mediation to communicate with people unable to use it.

My work
My team of Community Relations Specialists has historically supported communications between the communities and (mostly) the technical teams at Wikimedia Foundation.
I was hired
to assist
with
the launch of the visual editor
in 2013; I helped
several communities
with its adoption, and I later got involved with several other products and features before becoming my own team's line manager in 2018. Until September 2023 I led this
hard-working, widely appreciated team of community-facing folks
. I am grateful beyond words to have had them in my life, and for the community people who collaborated with us in the past decade (and will keep supporting them) to ensure this Movement's success.
Before getting hired here, I
pushed the Wikimedia Foundation
to become intentionally global re: liaisons work.
