Filmography

I’m a writer/director, musician, and audio engineer working across narrative, documentary, music videos, and theatre. My work explores themes of immigration, identity, race, and belonging—particularly within AAPI and mixed-race narratives—blending realism, comedy, and horror with socially and politically charged themes.
