This is Anna’s bionic journey 🦾⬇️
“For as long as I could remember, I’ve had to face life and adapt to my surroundings with only one hand, in a world made for two. My parents always emphasised the importance of reality by telling me what I could do, rather than what I couldn’t. Growing up without one of my arms was difficult. I’ve always had to fight to get what I need, but I’ve also never been discouraged when I haven’t succeeded.
I decided that I am a singer, actress, model and reggaeton dancer, and no-one else from going to hold me back from achieving those dreams. After participating in several singing competitions, I also participated twice in the ‘Miss Italia’ competition, both in 2014 and 2018, finishing in the regional final in both years.
In 2022, I was given the opportunity to trail the COVVI Hand, with a new socket and system that was custom made for me, which I have been wearing ever since. In the last few years, I have continued to focus on my modelling career and have taken part in various advertising campaigns and fashion showcases for different brands across Italy. Life presents you with obstacles, but you set the limits. Love your body, because each one of use is unique and must not be afraid to show ourselves for who and what we are! I am proud to be who I am and for the person I have managed to become.”
