“Like all people who started from scratch, on their own, I have faced numerous challenges, personal and professional, during my career. I’ve had to put myself out there and have learned to turn defeats into learning experiences, limits into resources for creativity,” Roberta added. 

Work and life balance

This woman of creativity has been in Dubai for several years, although not settling down in the emirate, still visiting the place for business, friends, and collaborators several times a year.

Her passion for creating new things, exploring the contemporary world, and increasing her knowledge everyday impact seeing everything on a brighter side. She believes that when an individual wants to fulfill a dream, someone should look for stimuli and transform them into engines for progress.
