Diliana is a producer and director, a first-generation immigrant from Bulgaria who now calls Los Angeles home. With over a decade of experience, she has led branded and theatrical marketing campaigns, collaborating with A-list talent and major production companies, agencies, and networks.

She has written and directed award-winning short films including Blue Moon (2022) and Sweetheart (2021), both centered on stories with meaningful social impact. Her latest short, Please, Stay, created with Taylor Lewis, received the 2025 Los Angeles Short Film Grant and goes into production in early 2026.

Through Gravina Films, the company she runs with her husband Jack Gravina, Diliana develops and produces work across genres. Their interactive VR horror series The Exorcism of Allie Fay (2020) for AmazeVR earned top ratings, and they continue to build a slate of narrative projects.

She also produced the feature 1-800-Hot Nite (2022), which premiered at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, won the Audience Award at Dances With Films, and now streams on Showtime.

Diliana believes storytelling is an ancient, primal force that shapes culture and connection. She is committed to increasing female representation on set and cultivating environments where collaborators feel supported and challenged to push their creative limits.
