A Mayfair Affair

FILM PROGRAMS & WORKSHOPS

Routed

A short narrative drama I directed as part of the 2025 CBS Leadership Pipeline Challenge — a program designed to elevate emerging creatives into leadership roles by giving them $5,000 and three weeks to pitch, produce, and deliver a complete film. Each team was selected by an impactful LA-based nonprofit to craft a story inspired by their mission.
 

I was honored to collaborate with CicLAvia, an organization that transforms Los Angeles streets into car-free spaces for community, culture, and connection — and proud that our team took first place, winning $100,000 to support this incredible organization.

Nothing Left Here

A short drama scene I directed as part of the Rom-Com/Heartbreak Workshop in the LA Director’s Lab during the summer of 2025. The Lab is designed to give directors and other creatives hands-on set experience in a fast-paced environment, with each director given just one hour and fifteen minutes to capture a three-page emotional scene.

The piece was brought to life with the help of an incredible cast and crew, including an intimacy coordinator, and was screened alongside other workshop projects at LOOK Dine-In Cinemas in Glendale, CA.

IN THE WORKS...

Blush is a collegue's short film passion project. I was involved in production for a majority of the filming. I had many roles throughout the shooting as an assistant to the cinematographer and other crew members. Always happy to work with others to fulfill their goals and make creative content.
