Director Statement

As an avid fan of science fiction and of history, in my work I strive to combine these two passions to examine both the effects that history has on the present and that the future could have on history. The question of "What If?" forever lingers in my head, and whether my stories are set in the past, present, or future, I will be attempting to answer that question, hoping to expand the mind of the viewer in the process.
