Although my main passion lies in filmmaking, I work across the entire production process – from concept development to the finished film. This includes idea development, budget management and funding applications, as well as directing, producing, cinematography, editing, sound mixing, and grading.

At the same time, my work extends beyond film. I’m deeply interested in visual storytelling in all its forms, especially when it comes to building brand identities and strategies that connect with people. Over the years, I’ve gained experience both as an Art Director at a communication agency and as a freelancer running my own company, which has allowed me to collaborate on a wide range of creative projects.
