After many years dancing and running a fashion business in Europe, she has returned to Australia where she is creating dreams for other people.
When Ms Antonello is not on a Virgin Australia airline flight to and from cities such as Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne or Perth, she is managing a business she started earlier this year called Show Off Productions.
It operates in Wollongong as well as many Australian capitals.
Show Off Productions has been such an instant hit, it recently won the 2014 Weddings and Events of Australia (WEOA) Award in Queensland For Excellence for Hens and Bucks Parties.
Ms Antonello can't always be present but, when she is, she is able to show off many of her own skills in studios she books around the country.
Show Off Productions hosts everything from children's' parties to end-of-year Christmas functions but in every case, it is all about turning the spotlight on to her clients
Ms Antonello has a team of industry professionals who help groups of workmates, friends and party guests create their own music clip.
It's a unique gift or activity for hens' parties, corporate team building events, birthday celebrations and children's parties.
In Wollongong, Show Off Productions runs out of a studio located in Auburn Street where guests who book at showoffproductions.com.au spend up to three hours creating a clip to music of their choosing.
Ms Antonello also employs a make-up artist.
Immediately prior to returning to Australia a couple of years ago, she started a bikini business called Wild Dahlia in Europe.
The idea was born when Ms Antonello, of Figtree, was visiting a good friend on the island of Salina, near Italy.
Prior to that, her dancing career mostly had her located in London and Rome.
She danced full-time on television shows, in films and theatre.
And prior to leaving Australia in 2007, the former St Mary Star of the Sea College student appeared in The Boy From Oz with Hugh Jackman.
She also appeared in a ballroom dance scene show in Venice with Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp in the movie called The Tourist.
While based in Rome and dancing on Italian television, she also had a job organising tours at the Vatican.
She has also studied psychology by correspondence through the University of New England.
