Born and raised in Italy, I'm a producer, writer, and director based in London, working across both fiction and documentary.

Trained as a screenwriter (Bournemouth University, Class of 2015), my work explores themes of society and identity, blending political consciousness with lyrical and surreal storytelling. Deeply rooted in my Italian heritage, I draw from the Golden Age of Italian neorealism, filtered through a contemporary and diasporic lens.

In 2022, I made my narrative directorial debut with Stay Behind, an experimental period short film exploring NATO's covert Gladio network in Cold War Italy and its manipulation by both Italian and American powers. Stay Behind won Best Film at the London Rolling Film Festival in 2023.

In 2023, I co-produced Foul Evil Deeds with Richard Hunter, a British drama-comedy selected for the 77th Locarno Film Festival’s Concorso Cineasti del Presente (Filmmakers of the Present Competition) in 2024.

In 2024 I co-produced with Richard Hunter the absurdist comedy short film “Thanks to Meet you!” having its premiere at Tiff 50.

I'm currently producing and directing - What the Wind Carries, a Cantonese drama/action short film in collaboration with Edson Ko & Plastic Pictures.

This year I’m also working on Terra Rossa, a short Italian documentary dedicated to my family in Calabria, who carry on a generations-old tradition of making clay vases in Gerocarne, once known as the “City of Master Potters.”

Finally, still in 2025, I am co-producing with Richard Hunter and Ilenka Jelowicki, Sour Taste, Richard Hunter’s second feature.

I am lucky to do what I love and loving what I do, at the centre of it all for me there’s social (sur)realism, feeling over aesthetic and dreams over form. I aspire to make films that reflect our souls’ endless search and our strange historical period, with films hopefully destined to stay impressed despite the passage of time, in a society too focused on consumeristic and sporadic art.
