I was born in Pisa in 1995.

I spent summers in Llanidloes, Wales, with my mother.

I still remember the darkroom in my grandfather’s house.

I was eight when I watched a blank sheet turn into a picture.

I studied medicine in Pisa because I thought I needed a "real" job.

I graduated in 2018 and moved to Oxford.

I felt lonely.

Two years later, I returned to my hometown.

I started taking pictures to deal with myself.

In 2020, I moved to Rome to study documentary photography.

Photography taught me to sit with my loneliness.

I like staring at houses and wondering what’s inside.

I like talking to strangers. I like being on the road alone.

I love my dog and Francesca.

I love playing tennis.

I love my parents, but sometimes I need to leave.

When I was a kid, I stole a firework from a shop.

I didn’t light it. I felt guilty for weeks.
