Storytelling is my home. When I settle into a project, whether shaping film or sound, distractions fade away, and I can fully listen to what the work needs to come alive.
Producing and editing documentaries has taught me to trust that instinct. When a scene moves me every time, I know I’m doing something right. In sociology, I learned that we live in an interpretive reality. Through this work, I explore my personal lens and invite viewers to find their own.
I’m drawn to stories of survival because they make me question reality itself. Are we really living in the same world? How can we be exposed to such different experiences? What choices would I make in those circumstances?
Above all, I try to listen to what the piece wants to be. When I do, the work becomes less about control and more about allowing — allowing the human story to emerge.
