About me
As a filmmaker, I find my inspiration in stories, the emotional context of the text helps me create images that prioritise substance over form. I've been making films since 2007 and have worked on a varied assortment of projects ranging from promos, corporate and music videos to award-winning shorts and feature documentaries. In 2014 I moved to the UK in order to take my filmmaking to the next level. The themes and visual approaches of modern British cinema really resonate with my own sensibilities. I'm always looking for new and exciting challanges across all genres and formats.

  • The Holy Dress
    The Holy DressThe Holy Dress is a garment that punishes its wearer through an electric shock when a lie is told. The dress is a speculative design imagining what it would be like to wear electronically enhanced clothing to help you stick to your morals. Because it is too easy to lie to yourself, the dress will check on your lies for you. Although the dress punishes, wearing it is not a punishment, but rather a radical new way to train yourself to become a better person. In the Holy Dress technology takes over
