A UNIQUE VOICE
FOR YOUR VISUAL PROJECTS
I was born and raised in culturally rich and stylish Italy, where I spent most of my life in front and behind the scenes in theater, television and recording studios. With this eclectic background that goes from classical ballet, to jazz and contemporary dance and music, to singing, to songwriting and music production, to playwriting, acting and creating original songs, scores and soundscapes for the live stage, since 2016 I work in my Los Angeles studio to bring to you high quality, captivating and distinctive original music, songs and sounds.

Happy to share that “Tell It Like a Woman”, a project I joined last year, is premiering on June 28th at Taormina Film Fest along with premieres of films like “ENNIO”, just to name one ( as an Italian composer I can’t be but even more thrilled about this! )
“Tell It Like a Woman” is a collective collaboration between women in film that includes seven short segments from USA, India, Italy, Japan and features talents like Eva Longoria (segment “Lagonero”), director Tarjai P.Henson and recently EGOT status achiever Jennifer Hudson (segment “Pespy and Kim”) and actor Pauletta Washington, Italian director Maria Sole Tognazzi and actor Margherita Buy (segment “Unspoken”).
Singer Sofia Carson performs the original song for the film “Applause” written by legendary Dianne Warren.
NOW…
The animation segment “Aria” directed by the two young and very talented Italian directors Lucia Bulgheroni and Silvia Carrobbio features my original score that includes amazing vocal performances by the fabulous Lauren Paley which I recorded remotely from LA in Nashville in a flawless session with fantastic engineer Doug Sarrett at Uno Mas Studio (thank you both for giving life to my notes) .
Here’s to a better future where people will actually collaborate and respect each other’s work and GET TOGETHER for real to create inspiring and empowering content like this film!
"Meteoric", written and directed by Philip Sedgwick and Produced by Christina July Kim, a fun modern western I just finished scoring is ready for its festival run. Here's the trailer featuring the end credits theme "Arizona Scavenger Hunt"
