Her academic studies at the famed Lorenzo de Medici School of Art in Florence, Italy, fostered a love of architecture, fine art, fashion, and nature that she brings to the sets of television shows nationwide and the events she produces for her elite clientele.

In 2014, Studio Fiore was honored to work closely with Lance Bass and Michael Turchin for their nuptials, the first televised gay wedding in the United States, which was produced by the incomparable Sharon Sacks.
