“I create film because it’s the medium of art that spills from my naked soul. Raw and undiluted, I approach writing & directing as a calling, not a job. I conceive and craft images with a flair for narrative, fashion and melancholia. You will see a signature in each of my works, and in seeing this; you will see me.”
