I once set out to be a chef, but my family's old camera changed my path. It took me into anthropology, exploring how different peoples tell their stories through food. In the end, I realized I was telling those stories better on film than anywhere else. So, here I am, directing.
My craft carries that precision blended with the observations I drew from personal researches. With a strong environmental and humanist approach, I’m always seeking to shift the way we see and imagine the world.
I believe in real handmade, timeless, storytelling - rooted in culture and envisioned to endure. That’s what you can expect from me.
