I was raised as a third-culture kid, living in the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Growing up biracial and multicultural, I found myself surrounded by fascinating stories from all walks of life. As a high schooler in Vienna, Austria, I started using my free block to watch a movie a day. There was pretty much no hope for me doing anything else after that. I began to pursue a career as a writer and director, eventually joining the BYU AdLab to hone my craft. Commercial filmmaking has allowed me to combine so many of my passions, whether it's my passion for social justice, my love for writing, or my longtime study of cinema. My work is based on the core belief that every single person has a compelling story to tell, and I love finding underrepresented stories that represent universal truths.

Through the AdLab, I've had the opportunity to work with brands including Old Navy, Baskin Robbins, Champion, and Amazon. I was a 2021 Multicultural Advertising Internship Fellow, a LAGRANT Fellow, and nominated as one of fifty Most Promising Multicultural Students by the American Advertising Federation. My work has won awards at the Andy’s, Telly’s, Addy’s, One Club, and the AICP.
