Born and raised in Modena/Italy Silvia had a dream of performing since she was a little girl. At the age of 9 she started attending ballet classes with Roma Heritage (Royal Ballet London) and after getting her High School Degree she started training vocally with Canadian opera singer, musical theater performer, founder and director of the renowned BSMT, Shawna Farrell and attended „The Bernstein School of Musical Theatre“ (BSMT) in Bologna/Italy (voice major, Diploma "With Honors").

Silvia also co-wrote the lyrics of "The Game" (Neja, 1999) which won "Un disco per l'estate" at the Italian renowned song contest "Festivalbar".
