Let's make films
As much as I love being in front of the camera (shout out to acting!), my true calling is telling my own stories on screen. That's definitely my passion space!
Nothing is more empowering than making your own art. So enjoy this growing collection of digital works I've created, or have been a part of as a key creative.
