My work explores the connection between people, culture, and the natural world through film, photography, and design. I use visual storytelling to capture authentic moments, environments, and perspectives that highlight how individuals interact with the spaces around them.
My film work ranges from short fiction and interview-style storytelling to documentary projects, where I focus on natural narratives and human-centered stories. In photography, I explore portraits, lifestyle, themed shoots, and travel or street photography, often documenting people within the environments that shape their lives and cultures.
With a background in graphic design, I bring a strong sense of composition and visual storytelling to each project. Moving forward, my goal is to combine filmmaking and photography to create work that centers environmental awareness, conservation, and cultural storytelling—capturing the beauty of natural spaces and the communities connected to them.
