I make movies because I believe stories should feel like adventures—unpredictable, larger than life, and full of energy. As a director, my goal is to capture that sense of excitement and wonder that first pulled me into cinema. Two films that shaped my vision are Indiana Jones and Big Trouble in Little China. They’re wildly different, but what connects them is a fearless commitment to entertainment: bold characters, high stakes, and worlds that feel alive. I carry that same spirit into my own work, whether I’m building horror, sci-fi, or character-driven drama. Filmmaking, for me, is about inviting an audience into something they can feel—something that moves fast, looks big, and never forgets to have fun. Every project I take on is a chance to push that creative vision further, and to collaborate with others who share the same passion for making stories come alive on screen.
