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.
