ABOUT ME
I've been filmmaking, writing, and making multimedia for over two decades as both creator and educator. My work explores the intersection of traditional creative approaches with cutting-edge technological innovations. I am driven by a core belief in creativity as a powerful force, not only in communicating ideas but also in fostering personal growth and strengthening social bonds. Throughout my career, I've witnessed firsthand how creative practice can transform individuals and communities. In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, I remain committed to bridging the gap between traditional techniques and emerging technologies. By blending classical storytelling with modern tools, I strive to push the boundaries of creative expression and inspire the next generation of multimedia artists. My ongoing research and practice demonstrate that when traditional craftsmanship meets technological innovation, the results catalyse change, deepen understanding, and nurture human connection.
