As a growing filmmaker, the motivation for creating this public blog comes down to two main reasons:

1. To Study Films

With each new project I complete, I’m proud of the work, yet I’m always reminded of how much more there is to learn. This is my way of dedicating myself to studying the craft of filmmaking.

Writing here is my way to refine my thinking. I believe becoming a master of filmmaking for myself requires a continuous practice of reflection and imagining of ideas about myself and the world around me, creating meaning for myself and a collective audience, turning into a cultural vocabulary to think about different ideas.

This is a space devoted for me to simply be a student of the craft.

2. To Build Community

My hope is that writing publicly creates opportunities to engage in conversations to challenge my ideas with readers and filmmakers behind the work I explore.

This blog is also a way for me to develop my own voice, share my creative process, and grow an audience that I can bring along for future films, projects, and stories still in the making, promoted through my email list, linked below.
