I graduated from CISA (Conservatorio Internazionale di Scienze Audiovisive) in Locarno, specialising in film editing with additional studies in production. Before film school, I completed several internships and collaborations in the audiovisual sector, working as a production, director and editing assistant in advertising and documentary filmmaking. These experiences allowed me to take on roles with significant creative and organisational responsibilities in filmmaking. I aspire to become a film editor not only to be a technical executor, but because I enjoy being able, with my own touch and sensitivity, to deeply influence the way a story is perceived through my editing. Like a puzzle that needs to be assembled, I see the editing as a never-ending work of problem solving, where every project is different, and it is this variety that motivates me the most: it's stimulating being exposed to new genres, cultures and styles of storytelling.
