About me

I was born in Rome and raised in Trieste. After graduating from Law School, I moved to NYC where I graduated in acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute in 1998. I moved back to Rome (Italy) where I started working in TV Series and Films. I got a gig aside Willem Dafoe directed by Theo Angelopoulos in a film selected for the International Berlin Film Festival. Also worked with Pupi Avati. I collaborated with Mario Moretti in off Broadway plays. Worked as a lawyer for over 10 years, I then moved back to the US in 2016 where I went back to acting training at Stuart Rogers Studio in LA. 2021 moved back to Italy where I signed with IPC International talent agency and started working in TV series and Films directed by Francesco Miccichè and Matteo Oleotto. At the moment I am acting between Italy and USA both in Italian and English. I am also an acting teacher, a speaker and a VO talent. I have a passion and a skill for languages and dialects. I own a fabulous Harley Davidson!
