About me

View profile

Multi-award-winning international actress, singer-songwriter, filmmaker, and producer, I have built a career spanning film, television, theater, voice-over, and music across Europe and the United States.

My artistic journey began as a print model and singer in France, Italy, and New York, including performances alongside the legendary Gipsy Kings and appearances as a chanteuse in venues throughout Europe. An early collaboration with Woody Allen on a series of television commercials for the Italian market inspired me to pursue acting professionally.

Committed to mastering my craft, I trained in New York with renowned teachers including Uta Hagen, Bill Hickey, Bobby Lewis, and Elaine Stritch at the Stella Adler Conservatory, and completed a two-year Meisner program before continuing my studies in Los Angeles with Larry Moss and Gordon Hunt.

My film credits include Taken 3, Family Is Family, Tango Shalom, Larchmont, Sebastien, Cameraman, Four Weeks, Four Hours, and Simultané. I have received Best Actress awards for Simultané, Only in Paris, and Tango Shalom, as well as additional festival nominations for Tango Shalom and The Warrior and The Savior.

Television credits include the acclaimed French series La Garçonne, as well as The Bold and the Beautiful, As the World Turns, Law & Order, JAG, The Shield, and Once and Again.

I am also known for my voice-over and performance-capture work, most notably as Madison Paige in Sony's award-winning video game Heavy Rain, recognized by Complex Magazine as one of the “25 Best Voice Over Performances of All Time.”

Fluent in English, French, and Italian, and holding both American and European citizenship, I work internationally between New York, Los Angeles, and Paris, driven by a passion for storytelling that connects audiences across cultures.
