CURRENT MISSION

To make movies and songs, one story at a time!

ABOUT ME

I'm a filmmaker and songwriter who loves food and deep human connection. I want to create films with a dash of whimsy, a sprinkle of quirk, and a dollop of magic. My works are influenced and inspired by aging, dreams, circuses, accordions, forbidden love, and perspective. So many stories to tell, so many people to meet, such little time!
...But, there's always time for a tea party! Right?

PHILOSOPHY

I love deep and true human connection. Friendship is so important to me. I'm spending my days practicing being more in the moment. I'm learning to fully love myself so that I can love others with a solid, passionate heart. Love is about appreciation, not possession-- I'm learning to let everything I love be free, because that is what we all deserve. I'm obsessed with feeling absurdly joyous but spend my days allowing and valuing sadness- the balance is needed and it is beautiful.

Interesses

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

If you're interested in learning about filmmaking I can teach you a bit! I can show you some of my work and tell you about the steps and elements that go into reaching the final product. Or you can ask me questions. Maybe I'll have some answers!
