I am a Documentary Director and Executive Producer based in London and Florence. Fluent in English and Italian, I make smart, authentic and compelling films and am known for getting engaging, warm and honest performances from real people. With a history of creating impactful visuals and powerful narratives I am equally happy telling human character-driven stories, directing large multi camera factual set-ups or driving specialist-factual authored pieces.
I have directed critically acclaimed, high rating documentaries and first series for Channel 4, BBC 2 and BBC 3. My work includes Boot Dreams: Now or Never (BBC 3 & BBC 1) SAS, Who Dares Wins (Channel 4), A Very British Airline (BBC 2), Flying to the Ends of the Earth (Channel 4), Amazing Hotels (BBC 2) and Barely Legal Grafters (BBC 2).
I have had photographs published in The Sunday Times, The Daily Mail and The Independent and written for Prospect magazine and the BBC’s From Our Own Correspondent.
