about

 
 

In addition to fostering the creative pursuits of fellow up-and-coming artists, I’ve collaborated with many people as a director, cinematographer, actor, animator, and editor to create works that bridge various media forms.

These projects range from dramatic narratives to sketch comedies, educational PSAs to environmental documentaries, stop-motion to hand-drawn animations, virtual reality installations to music videos. Some of these have earned global festival recognition and awards over the years.

I’m interested in how we perceive our shared world with its infinite plurality and how various media best equip us to sift through little bits of that chaos. I have a deep love of science; however, art – and film specifically – can often be the most compelling and accessible means for us to interpret the state of humanity and our role within Nature. Where are we, how did we get here, and where are we heading?

Currently based in Los Angeles, California.
