My passion for storytelling comes to life through my film projects. With a background in film & media studies, I have directed and produced a variety of films, promotional videos, and historical documentaries that span multiple genres and styles. From concept to post-production, I am dedicated to carefully crafting films that captivate and resonate with a wide variety of audiences and reflect my journey in the cinematic arts. The following are screen caps and descriptions of some of my projects.
