About

With a foundation built on over a decade of experience as a producer, director, and editor on the agency side, I've seamlessly transitioned into the world of cinematography, infusing my approach with a deep understanding of the filmmaking process from concept to completion.

Currently, my focus spans commercials, narrative films, and documentaries, where I actively contribute as a cinematographer. Collaboration is integral to my work, especially in the pre-production phase, where I immerse myself in the creative process alongside directors and creative minds to shape a project's visual language. Beyond the lens, my background enables me to effortlessly bridge the gap between creative and logistical aspects, understanding budgets, post-production intricacies, and the holistic needs of a project.

My cinematography has been showcased at esteemed film festivals including Tribeca Film Festival, BFI Flare, BFI Future, Gaze Festival in Dublin, Provincetown Film Festival, and CineQuest. Additionally, it has been featured in Nowness, Numero Magazine, Document Journal, W Magazine, and Vogue. Known for problem-solving and resourcefulness, I navigate challenges as a team player, ensuring seamless execution. With a Master of Cinematography from the University of London and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the School of Visual Arts, I remain committed to pushing the boundaries of visual storytelling.
