Alessia, born in 1989 in Trani, Puglia, began her university studies in Political Science and International Relations with the ambition of becoming a journalist. However, she soon realized that the cynicism required for that career was not part of her character. She decided to change direction and moved to Sydney, Australia, where in 2018 she began her artistic career. Photography, a passion she had nurtured since she was 19, became her first channel of expression, but it was writing and creating visual stories that truly captured her heart. She studied screenwriting for short films at AFTRS and earned a Diploma in Directing and Screenwriting in Rome. She made her directorial debut with the short film Deep Pockets, Empty Hearts in Sydney, followed by 1522, filmed in Rome, where she moved after the pandemic. After gaining experience in various independent projects, Alessia embarked on a career as a script supervisor, collaborating with major Italian and American productions in Italy.

As a bilingual professional fluent in Italian and English, I have extensive experience across various production roles, enabling me to effectively mediate between departments. My portfolio includes major productions, independent films, and commercial television projects. Living in Australia for eight years enhanced my communication skills and deepened my appreciation for cultural diversity. I am passionate about storytelling and cinema, particularly projects that explore well-being and mental health.

Friends often describe me as both brave and a bit unconventional—a combination that has fueled my journey from a small town in Puglia, southern Italy, to the global film industry. Without industry connections or access to top-tier education, I embraced the opportunities Australia offered. Through hard work and self-directed learning, I have collaborated with Oscar-winning artists and numerous professionals in Australia and Italy. I am dedicated to my craft and remain committed to continuous growth, always ready for the next step in my career.
