{"id":49,"name":"Tiziana Lepore","url":"","description":"Hi !\r\nI am Tiziana Lepore, an Italian passionate about art and food. I was born into a family of restaurateurs in Benevento (Italy) with a father and brother who are both chefs. I grew up among steaming kitchens, music, and people constantly on the move. I graduated  as an art director in Rome specialized in advertising sector, while simultaneously I was studying at the Jazz Academy in Rome as a singer. I also studied sound design because, alongside my work as an art director, I loved (and still love) singing ,writing electronic and acoustic music. Gastronomy and music  have always been the two constants in my life up to this day. I discovered that the job of an art director had become too limiting and stressful, so I decided to continue with music and become an event planner. \r\nI lived abroad for many years, exploring various gastronomic, artistic, and social cultures that enriched me incredibly. I managed and bought two restaurants with different partners, and after several years, I wanted to retire from the restaurant business to dedicate myself to something more in tune with my needs. In the meantime, I went through a divorce, and as with all events that seem disastrous, it gave me tremendous energy. My daughter and I moved to Lisbon seven years ago, starting a new life, and five years ago, I developed a passion for creative cooking and took several specialized courses in creative pasta and natural color management in pasta. I had the idea of creating pasta entirely inspired by the beauty of azulejos (tiles), so I created a new pasta brand ( Massazuleja) that I sell in gourmet restaurants and high-end food stores. Today, I work by conducting creative pasta workshops, private events, and concerts, becoming the entrepreneur of myself and my projects. I love what I do even more because it wasn\u2019t easy to achieve. I wish to continue studying and perfecting myself in the areas I love most. Lisbon is a beautiful city because it offers the opportunity to come into contact with many different realities and cultures, allowing you to learn and constantly improve.","link":"https:\/\/handson.pt\/pt\/teacher\/massazuleja\/","slug":"massazuleja","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/handson.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-11-at-15.43.16.jpeg","48":"https:\/\/handson.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-11-at-15.43.16.jpeg","96":"https:\/\/handson.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-11-at-15.43.16.jpeg"},"meta":[],"is_super_admin":false,"woocommerce_meta":{"variable_product_tour_shown":"","activity_panel_inbox_last_read":"","activity_panel_reviews_last_read":"","categories_report_columns":"","coupons_report_columns":"","customers_report_columns":"","orders_report_columns":"","products_report_columns":"","revenue_report_columns":"","taxes_report_columns":"","variations_report_columns":"","dashboard_sections":"","dashboard_chart_type":"","dashboard_chart_interval":"","dashboard_leaderboard_rows":"","order_attribution_install_banner_dismissed":"","scheduled_updates_promotion_notice_dismissed":"","homepage_layout":"","homepage_stats":"","task_list_tracked_started_tasks":"","android_app_banner_dismissed":"","launch_your_store_tour_hidden":"","coming_soon_banner_dismissed":""},"elementor_introduction":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/handson.pt\/pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/49","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/handson.pt\/pt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
