Since the beginning of my career, I have been dedicated to storytelling that marries content and form seamlessly. I am passionate about exploring the intersection between reality and fiction, individual and collective memory, as well as tangible and mental spaces. I believe that telling a story involves questioning how it is perceived, experienced, and shared. My multidisciplinary background spans cinema, television, and theater, allowing me to experiment with fragmented narrative forms where the image interacts organically with voice, body, and place. Deeply interested in the memory of communities and territories, I strive to give voice to often forgotten stories through demanding visual, sound, and dramaturgical compositions. Today, as an independent filmmaker, I continue this journey by developing projects that blend fiction, documentary, and formal experimentation while fostering collaboration and innovation.
