I’m an Italy specialist with a wealth of experience as a field producer, researcher, location manager/fixer for high-quality factual films, both for broadcast and theatrical release. I’ve also worked - and continue to work extensively - in news & current affairs and on TV commercials, and more recently also on substantial promotional events for UK clients. I’ve worked on legions of television documentary films, mainly for the BBC, Channel 4, ITV, PBS, Discovery Channel, National Geographic and other major broadcasters, on films about archaeology, art, biography, food, history, politics, science and sport. For ABC News I worked as an assignment editor and news segment producer in the UK, and in Italy as a field producer, off-air reporter and news editor. I worked as a Broadcast Manager for NBC Olympics at the Atlanta Centennial Olympic Games, and in Italy as a freelance producer for CNN, a print stringer for UPI and Jane’s Defence Weekly. I’m British – an English mother-tongue speaker with fluent Italian, good French and basic Spanish.

I'm a indy filmmaker and documentarist. I'm from north Italy (Vicenza, near Venice) but I'm living in Naples since seven years. In Venice I obtained a Master graduation making a video-portrait about a prostitue who was living in the station ("Julì"). In Naples I've autoproduced some docu-shorts about street's life of childrens (scugnizzi), the memory of a missionary muralist, suburbs life and poverty conditions, and Romanian musicians for a collective italian documentary called "Napoli 24" (with important italian directors like Paolo Sorrentino, Pietro Marcello, Bruno Oliviero,ecc.). I've realized also some fiction's shorts and the last produced ("The neighbour") will be distribuited in some international festivals. Now I'm working about other film's themes like precariousness and solitude in the city's life, and I'm writing a docu-project about a street's clown-musician who survives making his art and lives in a little room above the building's roof.
