Both of her parents were artists, her mum was a satire writer, painter, eco activist and actress, and her father was a film director and screenplay writer. From an early age, she loved making up stories and writing them down as a way of enhancing her reality along with keeping a diary to immortalise her experiences. She began her real-life adventure at 18 modelling in Paris, Milan, New York, and Miami, until her move to LA where she made a transition into film production/distribution. She produced Splitsville in 1998. Shortly after she moved to Rome and later London to continue her passion in film. In 2010, she became a mum.
