I’m a filmmaker drawn to the quiet moments that reveal who we are, the spaces between words, the way light falls on someone’s face when they finally tell the truth. My films explore how relationships shift and survive when we begin to live honestly.

Each project is part of an ongoing search for meaning, for connection, for the beauty tucked inside imperfection. I move between narrative and documentary, drawn to real people and lived experience. The stories rooted in place and authenticity.

Whether it’s the salt air of Provincetown or a fleeting glance across a room, I try to capture what lingers, what it feels like to be alive and uncertain, to love and to lose, to keep reaching anyway. 

Through film, I hope to create empathy, foster conversation, and open space for voices and experiences too often overlooked. I tell stories that matter and I’m always seeking collaborators, funders, and fellow dreamers who believe in the quiet power of cinema to move hearts and change minds.
