Born and raised between Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., Isabella has always felt at home in more than one place. At seventeen, she moved with her family to Florence, a city that quickly became another meaningful chapter in her story. After completing high school here, Isabella pursued her undergraduate degree in Sustainable Business Administration at the Università degli Studi di Firenze.

Outside of her academic and professional path, Isabella is an active staff volunteer and Social Media Manager at the Florence Leadership Academy; so feel free to stop by one of their events and say hello! A lover of all things culinary, Isabella spends much of her free time cooking and baking, especially preparing Challah for Shabbat dinners.

When she’s not in the kitchen, she’s usually outdoors: hiking,  and seeking out any chance to get under the sun and some fresh air. Her dream is to one day live on and steward her own farm, full of animals and daily tasks that’ll get her outside. When winter rolls around, you can often find her on the ice, indulging her long-standing love of ice skating.
