What do you think being creative means?
For me creativity is a gift that must be grasped, that sooner or later we all receive from life for several reasons. There are some who are more susceptible to developing knowledge, there are those who like many artists make it the basis of a job, and there are those who are not afraid to put it into practice…I think that creativity is a starting point to begin an inner journey of discovery, art, originality and evolution. Also, I think it’s even more rewarding when you can share your creativity with the world. And it is a point of arrival when it has really helped create something new and evolving for that person or for all people. 

How do you include creativity in your life?
Whenever I feel a pleasant idea, accompanied by a positive feeling and energy that makes my body vibrate, “I listen to myself and I apply it into practice”…starting with the simplest things, such as when writing an email, or when deciding my look, etc. to the real projects of my life as it was for “SATIN GIRLS”, “SPAPARTY”, “THE PERFECT MIX DJ”, “UNA VITA DA DEEJAY” and “TECH SEX HOUSE”, or for my musical productions and DJ sets, etc. 
 
What are your thoughts on how your life has influenced your creative imagination, and how your creative imagination has influenced your life?
My creativity is very svilupata, maybe just because I let it “free to express itself” in my daily life without filters, especially social or stereotypical. It helps me to look to the future and go beyond...I find that creativity and life are “THE PERFECT MIX” to be able to still amaze and surprise oneself. 
 
What, if any, exercises do you do to get into a creative mode?
Sometimes I feel the need to isolate myself, to be in silence, to be in contact with nature, especially seeking the light of the sun or the moon and fresh air, and I have the utmost concentration and devotion to a topic. I also noticed that my mind and my spirit are more creative at night, in absolute silence. But I happen to be very creative even during moments of absolute chaos while amongst people to talk to, and from speech and other reflections, a light bulb turns on inside me. There is no rule, but there is an open mind that seeks, captures from the world and continually monitors. 
 
How important do you think creativity is in life?
I’ve made it the essence of my life to always have renewed energy, life goals, moments of joy and strength and my personal evolution as an artist, as a deejay and producer, and as a woman. My concept “REGAIN” significa per me “Restart” thanks to a new creative idea, whatever it is and wherever I can bring it...no limits to creativity.
