Portrait –
For me, Film is about emotion, connection, and stories that move people.
Before stepping into the film world, I was a high-performance athlete, and I still carry that same drive, discipline, and team spirit into every project I work on. Film and photography is what excites me the most. People often tell me that my enthusiasm is contagious on set and during collaborations.
I’ve been building my way into the industry by creating opportunities for myself — through an exchange semester abroad, a first documentary film, short films, branded shorts, and by saying yes to every hands-on experience I could get during my studies.
