About Me

TV PRESENTER - ACTRESS - VOICE-OVER ARTIST - I grew up in the breath-taking city of Cape Town, in the southern tip of South Africa where 'energy' literally bounces off the streets and where my career in broadcasting came to life. I landed acting spots in over 12 international TV commercials, I danced in music videos, had my very own weekly radio show, I also worked as a voice-over artist for both TV and Radio commercials and landed some awesome tv work as a presenter/host. My experiences took me to live in the UK, Israel and France where I continued developing as a talent in the international media industry. Some of my TV work includes: being the lead VJ (tv presenter) for MTV's sister channel "Game One" - a channel exclusive to video games; A reporter for an entertainment WebTV channel called 'Nana'; Acted in a number of short films and have presented shows from as far as Paris to Las Vegas. I also worked with MTV Europe for a number of years all over the globe and met some of the most amazing people who really inspired me. With both my parents being Argentinian and together with my many travells and sense of adventure, I am super proud to have mastered nearly 5 languagess fluently: English, Spanish, Hebrew, Afrikaans and almost French! I am now based in France and commute to shoot locations in the USA, rest of Europe and Israel for all sorts of cool freelance jobs. I love working in the media, it's became a way of life!!
