I’m an LA based filmmaker and animator with a background in analog and DIY filmmaking. I work mainly with physical media, focusing on direct animation on 16mm film and frequent use of found materials. The unpredictability of analog processes deeply informs my filmmaking practice, where the unseen outcome becomes an integral part of the creative journey. I create films using a collage of techniques, blending elements of performance, fiction, and documentary cinema. Drawing from archival materials found in films and books, I recontextualize sources to craft new meanings and reshape histories. By removing materials from their original context, I explore the interplay between past and present, creating layered narratives that challenge conventional storytelling.

My short films have screened at festivals like Fantasia Film Festival, Brooklyn Film Festival, Atlanta Film Festival, Lone Star Film Festival, Capital City Film Festival, and Bridge Chicago. They are also featured online through Labocine as well as the Discover Indie Film series on Amazon Prime Video, Film Shortage, and NoBudge.com.

I grew up in Detroit, MI and earned a BA from Carnegie Mellon University and an MFA from Emerson College. A pelican bit me on the nose when I was 7 and I have been at war with birds ever since.
