Summary

I have been working since March 2009 as Second Unit Director, Director, Executive Producer and Associate Producer after completing my film direction education from Whistling Woods International. My passionate storytelling is apparent in my work experience of two years in advertising and corporate filmmaking before joining the film school. I am diligent, well organized, and have demonstrated a professional veneer and high degree of originality in my work. Triggering emotions while narrating stories, I love to ensure competence in all other technical areas aswell.
