MOVEMENT

I’m inspired by the interplay of light and shadow, using movement to shape emotion and direct attention with intention. My style blends aerobatics, parkour, and technical dance, creating fluid, picturesque motion that translates powerfully on camera. Through self-portraiture in both stills and film, I explore movement as both subject and storyteller — always experimenting, always evolving.
