About me
I'm a Canadian filmmaker who recently graduated with an MFA in Documentary Filmmaking from the New York Film Academy in Los Angeles, California.I’ve always had a strong interest in social issues. Throughout my Undergraduate schooling, I extensively researched a variety of controversial topics, including: Feminism and Homosexuality in Islam, Jewish Masculinities and Gender Identity and Exploring ISIS and Radicalization's Global Impact. My growing passion for social issues led me to choose to go on to study Documentary Filmmaking, where I created films that focused on matters such as PCOS Disorder in women and the Syrian Refugee Crisis from both a local and global perspective.
My experience ranges in booking and producing interviews with social media celebrities such as Little Bear the Bearded Lady to experts in humanitarian matters, such as Bassam Khawaja who works in refugee issues at Human Rights Watch in Lebanon.
I am also passionate about animals and travel. My plan is to see the world, and I hope to do that through my work. With my camera, I have travelled extensively for my projects and have already researched and found a wide variety of topics that I can't wait to make films on!
