An Italian self-made woman who loves to dance
Federica was born in Ferrara (Italy) and she moved to Leuven in 2003 for love. She has 20 years of solid experience in Medical Imaging in industry and in hospital and academic settings.
Living in Leuven allowed her to become fluent in 4 languages (Italian, Dutch, French and English). She currently owns her own consulting company, Palindromo Consulting. She is the mother of three teenagers, and she loves dancing with loud music while cooking great Italian food.
