A little bit about me ...
Embedded Files
I'm an American with Italian citizenship, living mostly in Oslo and sometimes in the south of France. A lifelong interest in language, ideas, and culture prompted me to pursue my BA in anthropology at Amherst College, followed by an MA and several years of PhD research in the University of Chicago’s Department of Comparative Human Development. I moved to Norway with my husband in 2013 and launched my editing and teaching business.
When I'm not playing with words, you'll find me swimming in the fjords, hiking in the marka with my dog, learning Norwegian and Italian, restoring an old farmhouse in the French Pyrenees, guerilla gardening around Oslo, or curled up under a Rørøs blanket with my nose in a book.
Check out my profile in FAWCO's Inspiring Women magazine, for their summer 2024 issue "Women Working With Words."

— Here's an interview-based piece of mine entitled "Letters From Home: A Question of Connection and Identity."
— And I wrote a book chapter based on my PhD research (extra points if you can guess which style guide I'm following for this reference!):
Gallicchio, N. “‘What kind of doula are you?’: Doulas, multiple moralities, and the processes and politics of ‘ethical becoming’.” In (A. Castaneda & J. Searcy, Eds.) Doulas & Intimate Labor. York, Canada: Demeter Press, December 2015.
— This is an old project of mine: a lighthearted take on how “America”, as an idea and a reality, is communicated and consumed (often quite literally!) in Norway.
