Summary
I've been a filmmaker since 2011. I enjoy making films with actors and love creating beautiful cinematography. Throughout the years of my filmmaking journey, I've won a few awards at film festivals including best cinematography, best picture, and best director. I've made a documentary which landed me a nomination for best documentary at my school film festival. I also take professional photos for upcoming actors as well as weddings and lifestyle photos. I am detail-oriented and work at a fast pace to meet tight deadlines whenever I'm on the job or making films.
