Born upside down and feet first, I’ve always seen the world a little differently. I’ve been obsessed with outer space since I was a toddler and to this day, I could talk for hours about the history of Soviet rocket engines and their influence upon the design of SpaceX’s raptor engines. 

But my biggest passion of all is making movies. I am currently obtaining my BFA in Film & Television Production at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts. My unique perspective combines my many interests, ranging from aerospace engineering, history, and philosophy. My work focuses on the complexities of the human experience, connection, and interaction.

I co-directed my first feature film entitled Right Here, Right Now during my senior year of high school, and my short films have been official selections at over 30 film festivals and won over 20 awards, including two LA Film Awards for Best Indie Short and Best Young Filmmaker; Outstanding Achievement in Directing from the Calabasas Film Festival; and Outstanding Achievement – Young Filmmaker from Indie Short Fest. My film A Soldier’s Dilemma was recently accepted into the Academy Award and BAFTA qualifying LA Shorts International Film Festival for best High School Short Film.
