Born in Rimini, Italy, the youngest of four, to a British mother and an Italian father, Elena developed an independent personality very quickly. With an early start in modeling, she began her artistic career as a dancer, where, after finishing high school, she left Italy to join the prestigious Ballet Rambert in London where she also developed an interest in the Theatre.Poetry and Drama in fact are other passions which she looked into and researched since her early teens. From the ancient Greeks Mythology to the Italian and British literature, Elena has performed classical and modern poetries throughout her youth.Elena has a particular passion for History. After completing a BA (Hons) in Ancient History & Archaeology at the University of London's Birkbeck College, she was fortunate enough to put these skills to good use in an historical documentary for Channel 4.Elena has never stopped growing as an artist. Most recently, she was cast in Andrew Lloyd Webber's "The Phantom of the Opera", directed by Joel Schumacher. She played one of Christine's close confidantes in this spectacular adaptation of the long-running stage musical.Her innate sense of style (and perhaps her birthright!) has led to a penchant for hats, shoes and scarves.In her spare time, Elena trains and runs Marathon all over the world in order to raise money for children's charities. She lives in London with her partner Richard and their two cats, Grey & Greyer. Hide
