Description

As a filmmaker with international experience, I am passionate about storytelling that transcends boundaries. With a First-Class Honours degree in Film Production from Coventry University, my portfolio includes award-nominated music videos and a BFI and National Lottery-funded feature-length documentary. I’m eager to bring my creative approach and dedication to your organization.

From a young age, I created short films and developed my skills through self-directed learning, a passion further refined during my formal education in film and television. Practical coursework at university prepared me for the industry's demands, allowing me to work with state-of-the-art equipment and facilities.

At Coventry University, I produced music videos that pushed traditional formats, focusing on narrative depth and artistic expression. One of these videos was BAFTA-qualifying and screened at the Aesthetica Film Festival.

A highlight of my career was serving as Director of Photography on a documentary about immigrants in post-Brexit Britain, funded by the BFI and National Lottery. This project amplified marginalized voices, including Roma and Gypsy communities, and was screened internationally, including on Czech national TV.

For my final university project, I wrote, directed, and produced a narrative film with professional-level production values. This ambitious project aligned with my goal to create high-quality films for mainstream platforms.

As a filmmaker of Roma heritage, I’m committed to increasing diversity in the industry and hope to inspire others from underrepresented backgrounds to pursue careers behind the camera. I look forward to contributing my skills and creativity to your team. Thank you for considering my application.
