Director Statement

The Covid-pandemic was the catalyst for my desire to express my creative voice as a film director and artist. When the film industry was collapsing around us, I saw that we have a limited time on this Earth to do what we truly desire so I decided to step out of my comfort zone to bring my voice and stories to screen. I lived in a secret fantasy world as a kid, so this is the time to bring my fantasy world to people. The film directors that inspired me the most are Guillermo del Torro, Wong Kar-wai, James Cameron and the Wachowski sisters.
