My approach to directing is rooted in connecting with actors to elicit performances that resonate deeply with the audience.

What sets me apart as a director is my ability to connect deeply with actors, tapping into their strengths to bring out their best performances.

For me, writing is about uncovering the truth in every story. I start by deeply understanding my characters—their drives, desires, and fears. From there, I craft plots that challenge them, forcing them to confront their deepest insecurities. Themes of resilience, identity, and transformation often emerge, reflecting my belief that every story should be a journey of growth. My writing process is meticulous, focusing on natural dialogue and plot twists that keep the audience engaged until the end.
Visually, I’m drawn to clean, vibrant imagery that enhances the emotion and clarity of each scene. My background in cinematography gives me a sharp eye for detail, ensuring that every shot aligns seamlessly with the story's emotional arc. I carefully select color palettes that fit each concept, using them to create an atmosphere that complements the narrative. I favor longer takes to capture the true depth of my characters' emotions, allowing them to convey meaning and intensity without relying on dialogue. Every frame is crafted to guide the audience's attention and immerse them in the story.
