I'm a human rights activist and documentary filmmaker based in London. I'm passionate passionate about producing movies that shed light on social injustice and other humanitarian issues.
I am a London-based human rights activist and documentary filmmaker, holding an MA in Documentary Production and an MBA in Humanitarian Action. With a passion for social justice and cinematic storytelling, I create multimedia content that sheds light on social injustices and humanitarian causes, aiming to inspire positive change through visual storytelling.
My career spans a wide range of subjects, from human rights abuses to environmental conservation. I am committed to pushing the boundaries of video production, using my work as a powerful platform for advocacy and social impact.
My short film Politicians and People, a split-screen drama, won several awards, and my documentary Breaking Barz was screened at over ten international film festivals. I am currently in discussions to produce a documentary for Al Jazeera English.
