Director Statement

I am drawn to stories that explore tension, identity, and moments when ordinary situations become personal. My films focus on strong female characters navigating pressure, secrecy, and power, often using genre elements to heighten emotional stakes. I enjoy working with limited resources and treating constraints as creative fuel. Through projects like Agents and You’re Next, I emphasize visual storytelling, performance, and atmosphere to create grounded yet cinematic worlds.
