Elena graduated in Communication Science from Turin University and subsequently took a specialisation course in Communication d’Entreprise at the Jean Moulin University in Lyon, France.

She began her professional career in 2002, working in media relations at Strategy & Media Group, an independent media centre in Turin.

In 2004 she moved to the In Adv communication and advertising agency, where she coordinated the start-up of the press office and supervised the newly formed events area.

After working on the development of In Adv, which became Italia Brand Group in 2010, Elena joined the business development team, with responsibility for scouting, project management and commercial development coordination. She also managed the quality certification process for the Group companies.

In 2017 Italia Brand Group was acquired by EY. Elena became a member of Yello, the Branding and Communication unit of EY Advisory, where she combined her business development work with the role of client manager. This dual function saw her working on important bids as well as on accounting for branding, communication and event management projects.

Having always had an interest in combining communication with sustainability, Elena joined Amapola as business development leader in 2019, tasked with driving and supporting the agency’s growth.

Her free time is taken up with raising two children, looking after ornamental plants and baking delicious cakes.
