Michela Di Carlo
As fierce as a lion tamer, she moves smoothly in the international media arena using the power of words only. When she doesn’t play with them on paper she prefers turning her views into food for thought. As a ringmaster, you will see her entertaining a vast audience of professionals although she still might get very emotional at weddings. She believes in the magic of Unicorns.
Veronica Niccolai
Like the heroine in a comic, she has two identities: art director by day and DJ-V, live performer and music producer by night. Wizard of the arts, she lives in an enchanting medieval village in the heart of Tuscany where she gets the inspiration to create under the tranquillity of the olive trees, surrounded by historic walls. She’s on the way to becoming a legend by the age of 50.
