As a curious and introspective person, my work aims to provoke thought and spark meaningful conversation. I am always drawn to character-driven stories that explore the nuanced, often grey areas of life.

What I love most about film is its dreamlike quality — the way it allows us to vicariously live through completely foreign experiences, and still feel intimately connected to the emotions unfolding on screen. My films aim to capture the duality of being both an escape and a mirror.

My personal style leans into the unexpected — I love experimenting with bold, sometimes surreal, or chaotic plots — with the heart rooted in emotional truth. Whether it’s a modern-day comedy, futuristic thriller, or a historical drama, my characters are all deeply human. I want audiences to see parts of themselves in these character’s relationships, their quiet moments, and their contradictions.

I hope my films invite people not just to watch, but to wrestle — to laugh and to cry, to feel, question, disagree, and connect. Behind the scenes, I experience these very things through the collaboration of making a film; where the piece grows into a multi-dimensional work, by the very means of being the product of so many different people. As a young storyteller, I am dedicated to using my talents to sustain the authentic and meaningful quality to film, which I love so much.
