Biography

A Como-born forward from the class of 2007, she is the daughter of Damiano Fantin, a player for HC Como during the club’s golden years under Mediolanum sponsorship in the top division, with Fabio Capello (the famous football coach) as president. Since childhood she was free to try other sports—from rhythmic gymnastics to volleyball and tennis—but in the end, as with her older sister Margherita, love for skates and stick inevitably took over. Developed within the historic Lombardy club, she raised her level thanks to spells in Switzerland wearing the colours of Lugano and Ambrì-Piotta. From 2025/2026 she is a new player for Penn State Women’s Hockey, the Pennsylvania State University team competing in the NCAA. At Milano Cortina, she wants to open the next important chapter: becoming one of the national team’s pillars.
