In Rome Anna started her career in marketing by working for leading international companies both in the tourism and the luxury goods industry. At the top of her career in one of the world’s major luxury brands she met the other half of the logo: Alessandra, the head of external relations. She starts sharing with Alex the daily fun of discovering that creativity can also be expressed and translated into living objects with a soul of their own. Authenticity, colours, tradition, love for perfection and joy for the universe allways follow her…. at work…. and at home with her handsome love and her three girls. Alessandra Sales Born in New York….raised in New York, Torino, Verona and Geneva….Alessandra now lives in Rome with her two lovely girls and her husband. While working as the External Relations Director at Bvlgari she had the good fortune to meet, Anna Neri – her best friend and business partner. The values that Alessandra shares with Anna such as fairness, respect and a passion for a beautiful authenticity whether, in relation to a person or an object, are at the basis of the new chapter her life called Anna e Alex.
