About Me

I am a new graduate of film school, as of December 31, 2006. I direct short films and help crew for friends. I aspire to write and direct feature length films while working in the industry in the A.D. department. I recently graduated from The Centre for Arts and Technology in Kelowna. I love artistic films and hope to save black and white film. I wish to incorporate the feelings of the classics into modern day genres. I hope to be a pioneer and lead a new generation of filmmakers who understand and respect the films and filmmakers who have come before us.Check out "InterventioN" short above.
