Powerful
together

Having actually been trained as an office administrator, Kim Marcelli was quickly drawn to the world of gastronomy. She first worked as a waitress, but was soon offered the opportunity to join the kitchen team. And this is where her true passion resides, which she practices every day with devotion and enthusiasm. As photography is her secondary passion, she spends her spare time behind the camera. In fact, many of the photos displaying the dishes served at the Artifex were taken by her. At weekends, she enjoys expressing her creativity crafting candles, embroidering or sewing.

Sandra and Tina have known each other for well over a decade now and work very closely with each other. Sandra loves reviving traditional dishes, such as apple strudel, by adding a modern twist. Time and again she also stops thinking about the sweet and assists with the savoury flavours. Outside the kitchen, she can usually be found swimming, hiking, cross-country skiing or tobogganing - as long as she can spend time in nature.

In charge of everything related to yeast, Angela is lovingly referred to as the "bread woman". She comes from a family of farmers in the beautiful region of Tuscany, which is why she feels so at home here in the valley and, above all, with Tina's kitchen philosophy. After starting out as a waitress, she soon discovered her fascination for the culinary arts and whirls from one job to the other - she never stands still, not even in her spare time. Be it running, cycling or hiking, keeping herself active is essential to her.

Maia, Tina and Kim have known each other since their days at the Hotel Moser. Ever since the junior chef from the locality of Gummer/San Valentino in Campo (South Tyrol) has never left their side. She loves creating new and innovative dishes that conjure up a smile on our guests' faces. Hiking and skiing in the surrounding landscape provide her with a recreational break.

Ronja joined the Artifex team through Maia. After graduating from hotel management school, Ronja, who is originally from the Sarntal valley, took on responsibility for broths and fish in Tina's kitchen. She enjoys coming up with new ideas, loves that creativity is highly sought after and is constantly striving to learn more and more. The mountains are her favourite destination for leisure activities, whether it's mountaineering or ski touring.

The native Austrian has already been honoured as a qualified sommelier at young age. He is always out and about scouting wine trends all over the country and looking for new, exciting wines that pair excellently with the Artifex menu. If you ask him about his favourite wine, he pauses for a moment but can't answer with absolute certainty. It varies all the time and depends very much on the moment, the person and, above all, the dish itself.
