About me

I am an independent filmmaker and MFA film graduate from Loyola Marymount University. My professional journey has led me to work on various productions collaborating with companies such as The Criterion Collection, BBC, LuluLemon, In The Lab (basketball company), and The Mane Choice. My specialization is scripted narrative, unscripted documentaries, and commercials, where I mainly take on the roles of Director, Writer, Camera Operator, or Producer. As a filmmaker, I have experience writing, directing, producing, and filming several independent projects in France, Algeria, Atlanta, and Los Angeles. My documentary background is marked by shooting numerous interviews with The Criterion Collection as a camera operator and a solo filmmaker for an episode of Criterion's 'Studio Visits.' My commitment to crafting engaging stories and imagery continues to inspire my work.
