I am a well-rounded filmmaker with experience managing visual projects from concept to delivery. I can produce, direct, shoot and edit. I’m a versatile professional and you can find me putting together crews for overseas productions as well as working behind the camera in a small team. I’ve got over 6 years of experience as an in-house filmmaker. Being part of two different production houses allowed me to expand my skills in pitching, script-writing and concept development. In 2023, I became a full-time freelancer and since I’ve worked for several multinational media companies as well as charities and brands. One of my most regular clients at the moment is As Equals (CNN) for which I produce, shoot and/or edit documentaries that aim to reveal what systemic gender inequality looks like. I consider myself a creative filmmaker who loves storytelling in all its forms and shapes. I like to keep up with emerging trends and explore new narratives. While I enjoy the creative process behind branded content and corporate, what resonates with me the most is to work on sensitive topics and tell stories that aim to change this world for the better.
