About Me
Filmmaker & Visual Storyteller.
I am a multimedia director and Unreal Artist. The overlap between my alternative writing & directing and technical VFX skills frees me to create dreamt worlds, fading memories, and deeply intimate experiences.
In May 2022, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from USC's School of Cinematic Arts, with a BFA in Film & Television Production and a minor in Future Cinema. While at USC, my short film “A Mother’s Soliloquy” was recognized as a Semi-Finalist by the Student Academy Awards.
With a multidisciplinary approach to filmmaking, my work blends poetic cinema with narrative storytelling, relying on emotional realism to explore inner human psyche.
I have worked with leading LGBTQ+ organizations to create and promote stories about queer identity, including The National AIDS Memorial and The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, and have collaborated with queer artists including Jason A. Rodriguez, co-star of the FX series POSE, to bring underrepresented characters to the screen.
Moving into the future, I am continuing to explore the intersection of technology and intimacy, while writing and directing films and new media.
