Elettra Fucelli

Elettra Fucelli (CAS’16) and David Monti (Questrom’ 17), of San Francisco, Calif., were married in June 2022 in Florence, Italy. Elettra and David met at BU through a mutual friend on David’s very first night of college. Their love grew right on BU’s campus: from their first date at a Red Sox game, through many study sessions on Bay State Road, and ultimately to graduation on Nickerson Field and beyond. They say what makes them cherish their status as a “BU couple” even more is that Elettra’s parents, Zoe Centeno (CGS’81, CAS’83) and Alfiero Fucelli, also met and fell in love at BU 30 years prior. Among the wedding guests: Rafael Amador (Sargent’17), Vince Calvi (CGS’14, COM’16), Mari Conway (CGS’81, CAS’83), Olga Echegaray (COM’16), Martina Fiorentini (Sargent’19), Ana Gonzalez (who participated in BU CELOP), Anabella Hidalgo (ENG’85), Ariana Hoyos (COM’14), Afsoon Kia-Booth (PIA’81), Billy Kranich (CAS’15), Anapatricia Maldonado (CAS’16), Andrea Marzari (COM’85), Laura Monti (Questrom’15), Pilar Navarro Grau (Pardee’86), Jeannette Perret Gentil (ENG’85), Kamran Shahbazi (Questrom’85), Jodi Silverstein (CGS’81, COM’83), Firouzeh Soufi (CAS’90), Juan Merizalde (COM’86), and Massimo Tartaglia (Questrom’85).
