Linda was born in Forest Gate in the East End of London. She grew up in one of London’s leafy suburbs, the second of four children, raised by wonderful parents following the best traditions of an Italian family – in a house full of love and happiness, respect and spaghetti.
She studied fashion design at The London College of Fashion and worked in partnership with her sister in a bespoke bridal wear business for some years before running away to live the dream in Lanzarote, making hay and carnival costumes in the sunshine. When she woke up, she returned to England and the theatre, supervising and designing for shows from Shakespeare to Pantomime and loving every minute.
She now lives in Hertfordshire with two gorgeous daughters and a scruffy dog.
