Galassia Grassetto
Galassia Grassetto is an actress and filmmaker who grew up living between Paris and Mexico City. Her Italian father was an engineer and her mother worked for a Mexican cinema magazine. By the time she was four years old, Galassia was already fluent in English, Italian, Spanish, and French. During her youth she attended a British high school in Paris where she was raised to speak in a British Accent.
Galassia is dedicated to ocean conservation because her upbringing was marked by vivid memories of marine life. As a young diver, she witnessed drastic environmental changes and became alarmed at the rate at which the oceans were dying. Her mission is to champion protecting ocean life, and she is especially avid in the protection of sharks and fighting the disastrous shark fin trade. As an artist, she seeks to create films that have a positive environmental message. To tell stories that illuminate and bridge the gap between us and nature.
Galassia moved to California to pursue acting and filmmaking and landed her first feature film in director Michael Leone's "#WhenTodayEnds." She then went on to write and produce the short film "Betting on Amanda". She is now pursuing acting and writing environmentally conscious films. She founded her own production company Mar a Mar with this mission in mind.
Galassia is also an avid athlete and a scratch golf player.
