Fabio Bernardis is a German-born model and actor based in New York. Before turning to performance, he played professional basketball in Germany and worked across Europe — a background that shows in the way he carries a frame: athletic, precise, unhurried. Trained in combat sports, fencing, and ballet, he completed a two-year acting conservatory and now serves as co-founder and artistic director of a New York theatre company. He works fluently in German, English, and Italian.
