Works of 2024
Looking back on this year of filmmaking makes me emotional, honestly. It was a trying time, one of distress and discomfort, trying to get out of myself and my mind. Letting go has been the theme of the year, letting go of who I think I am and discovering who I really am, the truest most pure version of my soul. This was the year I really discovered I just want to tell stories. How I’m getting to that point doesn’t really matter to me anymore. I know that’s who I am, and will continue to do that until I die. If there is one principle that would describe these works it would be “seeing the beauty in imperfection”, which has later gone on to be my personal mantra of sorts. Not having everything perfect for once.

I didn't know exactly what I was trying to say, but after a year of trying it all just fell into place and it was more profound and beautiful than I ever could've imagined. We were able to host a premiere in my grandma's backyard and it was a night I'll never forget. I can safely say this project dramatically changed my life as an artist and placed me in a new direction I never expected. Hope that helps.![]()

Additional Works of 2022-2024
I’ve always balanced roughly on the line of subjective and objective storytelling, as if I needed to abide by a certain set of rules if I was going to be a filmmaker. The more I try to let go the better I become. For me my work isn't about my audience, or what could possibly be gained through their viewership. Rather it’s an expression of my thoughts and feelings being released into the world (whether my audience catches it or not). One of my favorite things is being able to look back and see that encapsulated feeling compared to where I am now. It’s felt like a metric for measuring my growth over the years. A glowing reminder of the past. I really do hope though, that you can gain something out of these. Maybe it’s just another piece to the puzzle.

During the cold winter months and in the midst of many challenges in my life, I started working on this without the thought of anyone seeing it. Little did I know it would premiere later that spring to over 500 people live at the Scera Theater. A truly beautiful experience that was made possible by the tribulation of life. A visual headspace.
