I signed Valeria up to work on Big Little Journeys at the BBC to produce/direct an episode, having worked with her previously in Natural History Unit development. She works super hard, is very conscientious and vastly experienced - thoughtful, creative and was ace to have in the team.

I worked with Valeria on Big Little Journeys. She was a great asset to the team working on some difficult shoots. Despite the challenges Valeria understood her budget and worked within in it to get absolute best value for money on screen. She is exceptionally resilient and organised, adapting well to last minute changes and supporting and encouraging her team through it all.

Nicola Kowalski, Production Manager

Valeria is a hard working, passionate and intelligent natural history filmmaker. She has a strong grasp of narrative and is a good team player.

Steve Cole

Valeria was an excellent and proactive member of the Monsoon team. She uncovered some great stories, and set up and directed some very successful shoots - coming home with the goods, despite significant and varied challenges. Accomplished and thorough, she is always enthusiastic to learn new skills and gives 100% to everything she does.

Jonathan Clay, Producer

Valeria is one of the most creative, diligent, and amiable producers I have ever worked with and I wouldn't hesitate to work with her again.
