About

⛵ Italian girl with Greek roots and European heart. That’s me! Born and raised in Bari, right now I live in Milan. If I should find some words to describe me I would say curious traveler, creative mind, fascinated by good stories, art and sounds.

🧘🏻‍♀️ With a Master’s degree in Law, a Master in Marketing & New Media and a Professional Course in Creative Writing, I connect dots across intercultural disciplines, driven by creativity, precision, and an endless curiosity that fuels continuous learning. After 10 years in tech marketing, I am looking for a cultural and social impact projects, where I can create, launch, and shape meaningful initiatives.

🎸 Art and culture have profoundly influenced my mindset and actions, reinforcing my belief in human rights and development. For collaborations, projects or proposals you can contact me here: hello(at)stefaniabarbato.com

I enjoy traveling and learning more about different cultures. I like stories and I believe in the worth of sharing to build a better world.


Stories

I like reading and writing a lot. It’s something I feel I have a natural attitude for, but I’ve also invested a lot of time and effort to improve. Through jobs, courses, and practice, I’ve developed my skills. I’ve collaborated with a few magazines and newspapers as a freelance contributor, focusing mainly on startups and music, in addition to launching some personal projects (like my weekly newsletter “From Scratch” on Substack).

I like writing both in Italian and English (right now I am focusing on this last one). Below you can find a selection of posts featured also on Forbes, Rockit and Economy Up.

My Books

Stefania Barbato

“Dopo le sette di sera”, collections of poems (🇮🇹) published by Controluna – Edizioni di poesia – January 2025.

Esplorazioni urbane. Ricordi. Fogli di pentagramma. 40 poesie a metà tra appunti di viaggio e canzoni abbozzate. Sono parole che si mischiano, dando vita a storie diverse che spesso richiamano lettere, suoni, foto, quadri e viaggi. Racconti che spesso iniziano dopo il lavoro, il tram, le email e le call. Dopo le sette di sera, insomma.


Sounds

Songwriting, Producing & Sound Design | During my university years, I played in rock and indie bands and even won a songwriting contest. I continue to play guitar and strive to learn something new every day. I’m passionate about composing new songs and exploring the art of music production.

Fun Fact. I’ve attended over 100 concerts by international artists—and the magic never gets old.

Stay tuned!
