Angela’s educational background began with a focus on foreign languages (English, French, and German) at the “Vincenzo Manzini” high school in San Daniele del Friuli, where she graduated in 2021. During high school, she took extracurricular courses in Greek language and culture and Chinese language, in which she also earned the HSK certification, in addition to the DELF B2 certification in French. During high school, she had the opportunity to participate in various cultural exchanges in the UK, Ireland, France, and Germany, earning several certifications.

She subsequently continued her academic career at the University of Udine, earning a degree in Cultural Tourism Sciences and Techniques. Her thesis, titled “Incontri relazionali tra le geografie umane e animali in ambito turistico” (Relational Encounters Between Human and Animal Geographies in the Context of Tourism), analyzed how, in the tourism industry, the relationship between humans and animals reflects an anthropocentric perspective, the rejection of which would amount to questioning the very existence of a sector founded on human will and needs. During the first three years of her university career, she obtained certification in “Tourism 4.0 and Digital Innovation of Cultural Heritage” from the European Institute of Innovation & Technology.

She is currently pursuing a master’s degree in Cultural Tourism and Event Management at the University of Udine. In early 2026, she began working on a project to create a tourism podcast that also serves as a guide for visitors to a historic villa.

For the past four years, she has combined her academic studies with active volunteer work, helping to raise funds and secure sponsorships for a charity tournament in support of the Aviano Cancer Reference Center (C.R.O.).
