The family eventually returned to Italy, and, while they were living in Rome, Mischiati developed an interest in performing. By the time she was 15, she had resolved that acting would be her life.
After initially studying acting at Italian universities, Mischiati secured a student visa to the United States and relocated to Hollywood at the age of 20 to continue her studies. While in the U.S., she became fluent in English and worked hard to gain a natural-sounding American accent so she could more easily gain parts in American productions. Her athleticism and grace served her well as she learned her craft, as she also came to master stage combat and sword fighting. Eventually, she graduated from the American Musical and Dramatic Academy (AMDA) at the top of her class.
Mischiati returned to Italy in 2009 and launched into a busy international acting career that has spanned stage, television, and film. From working as a stuntwoman (including being a stand-in for Angelina Jolie); to leading roles in Shakespearean stage productions (such as Desdemona in "Othello"); supporting roles on several Italian television shows; appearing in short films and numerous music videos; and a number leading roles in independent films--mostly sci-fi, fantasy, and horror-- she gets busier with each passing year.
Among Mischiati's most notable horror film appearances are key supporting or starring roles in "Ex Inferis" (aka "Back From Hell") (2011), "Evil Things" (2012), "The Plan" (2017), "Curse of the Blind Dead" (2020), and "Fade Out" (aka "Succubus") (2021). Most recently, she played the lead role in "Dead Bride" (2022), and she is also starring in the soon-to-be released "The Follower".
