ABOUT (me)
I’m a director who digs strong characters, colorful visuals, and always honors the joke. I love obsessive personalities, people who take things too far, and I add a satirical, playful, high-energy vibe to these narratives. I’ve done branded, I’ve done original, and I’m not afraid to do you too.
Thanks!
