About me

I’m an Economist turned into a filmmaker so I'm an avid user of both, the left and right side of the brain and I work as a producer and creator, mostly in films, series, VFX, commercials, social media content, brand and music videos. My goal is to move emotions and engage the right target through visually compelling content in any space, on any screen, meaning I embrace all kind of new media. I love challenges, and I'm super grateful that I get to work with smart, creative people. I'd love to talk to you about how I can best contribute to your team.
Additional information:
I'm a full-time freelance Writer/Director/Producer with a proven track record ensuring high quality and the smooth running of all creation, development, production (on location and in studio), and delivery of short-form content for clients such as Netflix, T-Mobile, Zumba, Toyota, and and long-form content in partnership with other production companies such as the BBC and Revolution Films. My films have been in Cannes, Toronto, Los Angeles, BFI London, among other films festivals. 

I have a strong editorial judgment and the ability to suggest and spot strong stories, offer creative and compelling forms and ways of telling these stories, and bring them to life on a shoestring or multi-million-dollar budget. 

I have a solid knowledge of the process of Development, Pre-Production and Production: Project and team management, story development, screenwriting, budgeting, scheduling, hiring department heads, negotiating with talent, agencies, and third-party vendors, financing (equity, pre-sales, financial institutions, and tax shelter), shooting, and directing. Post-Production: Supervising, reviewing/researching/acquiring footage, editing with Premiere Pro, VFX production, marketing, including film festival planning and social media advertising. 

When I'm not filming, I'm taking photos, which is a relative new passion I'm enjoying very much.

I speak English, Spanish and Italian and I have the ability to communicate and interact effectively with all levels of staff and talent from different backgrounds. I'm based in Los Angeles, CA and I have a well-established network of world-class talent, agencies, studios, production companies, facilities and vendors in the U.S., Europe, Latin America and India.

I’m a team player that loves challenges and I look forward to working with smart, creative people like you.
