Meet Valentina (cupid)

After many years of teaching languages, freelancing, and dreaming, Valentina decided to put her media production goals to work by founding cupid’s bow media in 2023.

Valentina has a passion for heritage, culture, and community and brings each value to every project she works on. Her CV includes work in documentary, narrative, commercial, and social media production.

She is currently in the pre-production stages of her executive producer debut film Domani, set for production in August 2024. In the meantime, she does freelance work on set and in the field for brands, small businesses, and really whoever is looking to have a camera in their face at any given time.

Valentina speaks Italian, French, English, and Spanish (in that order).
