The line she wrote "give the voiceless your voice" is the concept that moved her to make music for media. She says: "I want to make music with meaning for meaningful projects".

She has been also involved in Women Filmmakers Projects, being the composer for Television Documentary Series "One of Us", an institutional project produced by the Embassy of Italy to the United States in Washington and the Consulate General of Italy in Los Angeles. The series is about immigrant women breaking the glass ceiling.

Henson, Catherine Hardwicke, Maria Sole Tognazzi and starring Eva Longoria, recently EGOT achiever Jennifer Hudson, Margherita Buy and more, The film is premiering this month at the prestigious Taormina International Film Festival in Italy and features an original theme song by Dianne Warren.
