Genealogy can be like a treasure hunt, but I know how and where to look and I know the language.  I can help you to overcome barriers and help you to track down your family’s Italian ancestral line so you can find out where your family’s story began.

I am a professional genealogist, lecturer and author based in Italy for more than ten years. I have extensive research experience  using various sources of documentation.

I have ​spoken on the topic of Italian genealogy and southern Italy to genealogy groups, Italian organizations as well as at RootsTech London 2019 and at RootsTech Virtual 2022. I have published a book based on my experience as a genealogist and ancestry tour guide: Italian Ancestral JourneysA DIY Guide To Visiting Your Ancestors’ Towns.
