About me
I always loved English. I was the little girl always speaking it, even before knowing what anything of it meant or that what I was speaking was not English at all. Then came literature, movies, songs… filling teen afternoons and college nights —guess it never was for me being anything else than an English major *:・゚✧

US: Picture Book + Lesson Plan
Design and production of a multimodal resource (picturebook) revolving around a sustainability and UNs Sustainable Development Goal of my choice: in this case, “An odd/ther story” (GENDER IDENTITY (social sustainability, social justice, equity and social diversity) Development of a lesson plan for which the picturebook would be used as the main learning resource for teaching a certain feature of the English language: while developing the major aims, oral and writing fluency, the unit is also designed for students to develop outside-of-the-language skills, so as to be able to both engage and produce multimodal, electronic multimedia texts.
CAT'S EYE
Staging for an alternative literary analysis of Margaret Atwood's 'Cat's Eye', built around the original works of Holly Warburton and Postcolonial Criticism The aim was always to reproduce as much as possible the experience of a temporary exhibition in an art museum, for which I created a website as a digital projection of the museum room (I chose the one in Ontario, where the novel is set, to give it the greatest degree of authenticity), a complementary brochure [QR on the website], and tickets with 4 alternative layouts
ONCE UPON A TIKTOK
Analysis through tiktoks of Angela Carter's book, 'The Bloody Chamber', from Propp's Narratology and Cixoux's Feminism In this project I was able to combine two of my passions: folklore and design. I was in charge of all the pre- and post-production: reviewing the analyses masterfully done by my colleagues, projecting the scripts based on their texts, designing the visuals, choosing the music, and assembling the final product, which was a total of 12 published tiktoks.
