BIO TO B | DRAMA
Graduated in Modern Literature with a specialization in publishing studies, I later completed a Master’s degree in Screenwriting and International Production at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore. I originally studied to work in publishing, but my passion for storytelling soon proved to transcend the medium itself, leading me from the page to the screen. I now work as a development executive, focusing on story editing and scouting, with a particular interest in stories, characters, and perspectives that leave a lasting impression.
