Summary

I'm a highly motivated independent filmmaker who has hustled his way from the streets into AFDA film school purely through hard work and persistence. I have a track record of always delivering and performing under pressure. I am eager to learn from others through assistance. I have worked on numerous projects both at AFDA and personal. From advertisement for small businesses and music videos for popular local artists.
