Antonia Maran

I am a 28-year-old psychology student from Italy, currently starting a Master’s degree in Developmental and Clinical Psychology at the University of Padua, after completing a Bachelor’s degree in Developmental, Personality, and Interpersonal Relationships Psychology. Before psychology, I studied Visual Arts in Venice. My passion for art led me to discover a deeper interest in the people behind artworks, which inspired my decision to pursue psychology. I currently work in a residential educational community for minors in Venice, supporting unaccompanied minors and young people involved in the juvenile justice system. This experience is helping me develop strong relational skills, empathy, active listening, and the ability to build trusting relationships.
