Director Statement

The arts are one of the few ways that we can reconnect with our humanity As a writer/director, I think it is important that every movie that I make reveals something of the human condition. Movies can break down the barriers that normally separate us, allowing us to examine and discuss even the toughest of subjects when done properly.
