I am a musician, producer, and sound designer based in Rome. My work moves between neoclassical, electronic, and ambient, blending intimate textures with sonic exploration. I have collaborated on short films and feature projects selected at festivals, handling original scores, sound design, and stereo/5.1 mixes. In my studio, I focus on music production, mixing and mastering, as well as original composition for film, theater, and video games. Alongside, I am developing a personal discography and a neoclassical duo project, with a debut EP set for release in 2025. What drives me is the idea of sound as architecture: creating spaces where listeners can step in, wander, and discover new emotional landscapes.
