About Me

Hi, I’m Neve — a Swiss-Italian actress and filmmaker with a passport full of stamps and a heart full of stories.

Growing up in Switzerland and living across several countries, I didn’t just collect experiences — I learned to move between worlds. I now switch naturally between five languages (Swiss German, German, English, French, and Spanish), adding layers of nuance to the way I see the world, connect with people, and shape the characters I bring to life.

Before taking the leap into acting full-time, I explored a few different paths: soaring through the skies as a flight attendant, sharing language and culture as a German teacher, and bringing people together as an event and community manager. Through it all, creativity was my compass — whether through acting, singing, (song)writing, dancing, or cooking a meal that felt like its own little improv game.

From 2018 to 2023, California became my home, playground, and training ground — a time of learning, growing, and daring. I trained at Bethel Conservatory of the Arts (earning a BA in Acting) and gained on-set experience in Los Angeles, soaking up the energy and artistry of the City of Angels. Now based in Zurich, I’m pursuing acting while developing my first short film as a writer, producer, and director.

My artistic home lies in character-driven drama — quiet intensity, emotional nuance, and unspoken subtext. I’m drawn to roles that hold both tenderness and steel, and to narratives that wrestle with belonging, identity, and redemption. For me, the magic often happens in the silences — where culture, language, and movement speak louder than words.

When I’m not on set, you’ll probably find me indulging my foodie side, humming songs on my guitar, sipping matcha, or going on an outdoorsy adventure. I love live indie concerts, listen to jazz while I create, geek out on all things holistic health, stop to smell flowers on the way, and thrift treasures whenever I can. I’m an introverted extrovert — equally happy lost in a script or buzzing with energy on a collaborative set.

Above all, my goal is simple yet ambitious: to tell hope-inducing, thought-provoking, and visually beautiful stories. At the heart of it all is connection — creating meaningful art with fellow storytellers and, hopefully, sparking something real and lasting in those who experience it.
