My Story

A career built on rigorous compliance — and on people.

I was born in Pescara in 1961 and grew up by the sea — its autumn breeze is still what I miss most. At 18, I moved to Bologna to study Pharmaceutical Chemistry and graduated with the highest marks.

I began my career at Janssen, where I built a new Quality Assurance department and prepared the site for its first FDA pre-approval inspection, which it passed. I then moved to sterile manufacturing at Chiron in Siena, and through Novartis and GSK went from site compliance to the global supplier auditing team.

I started auditing while preparing for that first FDA inspection. It quickly became my favorite part of the job — and I never stopped until my retirement.

Behind every job title and role, there are people first and foremost.
Rigorous compliance delivered with approachability, mentorship, and good humor. Always with a smile.
