Director Statement
I am interested in all forms of media. I believe that by blending different forms of art such as audio, visuals, storytelling, etc. you can create a more powerful piece than by using one art form alone. Each project I make is different, and I’ve found that each person takes something different out them. Our current culture and my generation are prone to listening to video media. I want to create films that entertain the audience. The last film I made (Don’t Drink the Water) won audience award and 2nd best film in its first premiere. I feel honored and very excited that the film received well by the audience. I feel passionate about film and the world I live in. My hope is to carry inspiration to others.
