# Elena Rossi

Luca's younger sister, based in Rome where she works as an editor at a mid-sized Italian publishing house. Elena is warm, sharp-witted, and one of the people Luca trusts most in the world. They talk on the phone every week, usually on Sunday evenings, catching up on everything from work to family to what they are reading. Despite living in different cities, they have maintained a close bond through consistent communication and shared sensibilities.

Elena studied comparative literature at La Sapienza and has built a solid career in Italian publishing, working primarily on literary fiction and translated works. She has an editorial eye that extends beyond books; Luca sometimes runs newsletter drafts past her for a perspective outside the tech bubble.

## Notes

- Voracious reader with impeccable taste; her book recommendations are always worth following
- Has a dry, deadpan sense of humor that perfectly complements Luca's more enthusiastic energy
- Fiercely independent but deeply loyal to family; will drop everything if someone she loves needs help
- Curious about Luca's tech world even though it is far from her own; asks surprisingly insightful questions about the business
- They share a love of good coffee and have a running debate about which Italian city has the best espresso (she says Rome, he says Milan, neither will concede)

## Collaborations

- [[event-dinner-family]] — central figure at family gatherings; always makes the trip to Milan for important occasions
