Director Statement

I wish to influence positively with my films. After questioning the purpose and motive behind my filmmaking, I've determined that helping others achieve fulfillment is what moves me the most. I aim to create films that invite people to have patience, commitment, conscience, hope, persistence, resilience, and faith.
A Youtube comment in my short film First Love states: "Jogging was my way of draining frustration, I had kicked the habit, but this short encouraged me to jog again. Thank you!". In a nutshell, this feedback is what moves me, making my effort and hard work count.
