They told me that there was some talent to work with, and I was like, «for real now?»
Fabrizio was born 1989 in Chur, Switzerland, as the older of two children. His parents are both Italian. As a son of Italian immigrants he learned something important very early in life and in that life if he wanted to reach that something, he had to work harder than others. This little principle went along his whole childhood and furthermore. The curiosity, which was omnipresent anyway, brought the idea of acting. He went to auditions for acting schools without knowing what acting really was and started taking acting classes with the same knowledge – nothing! This openness and curiosity caused the beginning of an indescribable passion for this job and brought the important decision of committing his life to the art of acting.
The multilingual actor now lives in Los Angeles and Zurich.
Growing Up
Born and raised in the Swiss Mountain by Italian parents, Fabrizio was always driven by curiosity and eagerness for discovery! As a son of Italian immigrants he learned something important very early in life: Nobody owes you anything and, you have to work really hard for what you want.
Family First
Your family is what you’re born into, and family is what will be there when you are done on this planet. Almost everything else in life comes and goes. Fabrizio knows that the support from his family has, and will always be there. Even today, that’s one of his rule: Family First!
Change of Path
Fabrizio completed a commercial apprenticeship, obtained the vocational baccalaureate and was well on his way to studying business at a university of applied sciences. Fate, however, had a different plan for him. » The deciding factor was that I wanted to complete the degree while working, but my boss didn’t agree. So I thought, ‹Then I’ll just quit and completely reorient myself›. » He then gave his curiosity free rein. That’s how he finally stumbled upon acting. «I took classes and applied to a drama school in Zurich.» To his surprise, he says, the feedback has been very good. «They told me that talent was there, and I was like, ‹for real now?»
Early Days
After acting school in Zurich, he wanted to make his start as an actor outside Switzerland. » I think I have to go to Hollywood. Because Hollywood is Hollywood and I’ve never been there and wanted to see how my career will develop there. ” He then spoke on the phone with a colleague who lived in New York. On her advice, Daniele applied for an acting school in Los Angeles. This was the only sensible way to live there and work on his skills without constantly seeking a visa.»
Today
In July 2020 Fabrizio and a few of his closest friends started their own company: Momus Media!
Today, the trilingual storyteller travels consistently between Europe and the US to work as an actor, to produce or direct movies, or to address and inspire people to follow their dreams and intuitions.
