Work

As a director, my work spans fiction films, feature documentaries, and documentary series, reflecting both a passion for storytelling and a commitment to exploring diverse voices and experiences. I approach fiction with a focus on performance, working closely with actors to bring depth and authenticity to their roles, while my documentary work engages with real communities and untold stories across cultures. In addition to directing, I also write for both fiction and non-fiction, developing concepts for feature films and documentaries that merge personal narratives with broader social themes. This dual path—as director and screenwriter—allows me to craft stories from conception to screen, whether through carefully written scripts or through capturing life as it unfolds.
