About us

Sara Massarotto,

Founder

With over 18 years of experience in communications and marketing, Sara Massarotto began her career in Milan within the fashion industry before moving to New York in 2014, where her work took a decisive turn toward hospitality.

After years working across food, lifestyle, and hospitality, including leading communications for Eataly in North America, she founded House of Stories to help Italian and international brands translate their identity and stories for the U.S. market.

Outside of work, Sara’s favorite ritual is discovering bakeries wherever she travels, drawn to the quiet joy, craft, and stories behind baked goods.
