In high school, I was that kid that seemed to never be paying attention. They said I was watching too many films, and honestly it was true. I wouldn’t even skip commercials (well, in the pre-Netflix era we couldn’t) as I was fascinated by their realisation.
When I started university, I originally decided to go into economics. After four months, I closed my book of financial statistic, bought a camera and a lens, and enrolled a Filmmaking course. After three years, I found myself in London, with a First Class Degree and a Video Production House. A new way to show and share my passions. I am so happy that I made that decision.
I film because I love it. I like the industry. I like the people I meet. And I like that any video can communicate something, whether it’s a commercial or music video or a boring corporate. I like to think that Filmmaking can also make the world a better place.
I am a 'National Film Award' Nominated Film Director and Editor.
Innovative and creative, I have been working in the Film Industries for over 8 years, travelling locally and internationally.
Born in Milan, Italy, I have become a Filmmaker in London, working as Director, Producer and Cinematographer in a broad range of productions, after having gravitated from the Editing and Colouring world.
I'm charmed by any production, whether it's a documentary, a wedding, a music video or a short film, as there is always something new to learn and enjoy.
With the use of my equipment, software and experience I believe I am an asset on any production and I know I can contribute a great deal to any project.
I’m an experienced rock climber and mountaineer, and like spending time playing piano.
