I am an independent filmmaker with experience as a writer, director, and producer, dedicated to telling grounded, human-centered stories. Born and raised in Newark, New Jersey, my work explores the hidden struggles behind seemingly “perfect” lives, with a focus on emotional truth and social realism. I co-produced the award-winning short film Zahra and the Oil Man and have collaborated on several original television pilots. In addition to writing and directing, I have served as 1st Assistant Director, Script Supervisor, and Unit Production Manager on multiple productions, giving me a well-rounded, hands-on approach to filmmaking. My goal is to create intimate, impactful stories that resonate long after the screen fades to black.
