Profile
As a student filmmaker, A deep rooted love for art merged with the challenge of
translating an artistic vision into reality, using imagination, history, research and
physical skills, has led me to wanting to pursue a career in production design. I have
worked on a variety of productions in different roles such as producing,
cinematography, screenwriting and specifically specialising in production design as I
find this area to be creatively satisfying. I hope to continue to develop my abilities and
knowledge base alongside meeting professionals within the industry who can help
enhance my carrer.
