About me

I am a German-Italian actor with extensive experience in film, television and theatre, trained at the Oxford School of Drama.
I move between cultures and languages, always seeking new stories to tell.

I am currently touring Italy (2025/26) in the lead role of Ennis Del Mar in "Brokeback Mountain" and recently received the 2025 Nastro d’Argento with the ensemble cast of Ferzan Özpetek’s "Diamanti".
