About Us

Roberta is an Italian-born-and-raised bookworm, who’s always had a passion and interest for languages, especially English. She speaks German and Spanish as well, and is working on learning French in her spare time. She’s also an author of sweet romances in English, under a pen name. Growing up with her nose constantly stuck in books and dictionaries, she finally decided to combine her two biggest passions and turn them into a job, so she could keep spending her days lost in fictional worlds while at the same time helping authors who want to expand their reach to the Italian market.
She earned a Cambridge Certificate in Advanced English and has an extensive knowledge of the English language – both British and American English – which she not only learned in school and in her different jobs over 20+ years, but also by reading hundreds of novels in English and listening to audiobooks.

As of May 2025, Roberta has started a collaboration with Land Editore, an independent publishing house based in Northern Italy, and is now its official Foreign Rights Manager, while also working on some of the translations of the acquired titles and offering courses to the students of Land Academy, the online school of the publishing house.
