# Anna Fontana

Runs a small yoga and wellness studio near Luca's apartment in Milan. Giulia introduced them a couple of years ago, and while Luca is not a regular yoga practitioner, he and Giulia occasionally attend Anna's classes. Anna is warm, grounded, and has built a successful small business entirely through word of mouth and community connection, which Luca respects as a fellow indie business owner.

## Notes

- Entrepreneurial mindset despite not coming from a tech background; runs her studio lean and profitably
- Great at building community around her business; her retention rate is remarkably high
- Luca finds conversations with her refreshing precisely because they are outside the tech bubble
- Introduced Luca and Giulia to a few good restaurants in the neighborhood

## Collaborations

- [[event-dinner-family]] — occasional guest at neighborhood dinners with Luca and Giulia
