Indore, India—The Daly College
Writer and director working in psychological and emotional interiority — stories that stay in one room, sometimes with one actor, until a feeling has been followed all the way down.
About
I’m more interested in what people don’t say than what they do.
Making films has been my way of understanding the world since 5th grade — long before I had language for why a scene worked or didn’t. What I’ve kept from those years is an instinct for staying close to a single feeling instead of cutting away from it the moment it gets uncomfortable.
Most of my fiction work happens in one room, occasionally with one actor. I’m less interested in where a story goes than in what it’s like to sit inside it a little too long.
I also make short documentary work — less interior, closer to the ground — but built on the same habit: looking at something ordinary until it stops being ordinary. Alongside all of it, I founded and run my school’s filmmaking club.

Upload
Add to the site.
Paste a link to a film or reel, or drop photos straight in — they publish to the live site immediately, no code required.
Upload the film itself somewhere you already use — YouTube (unlisted works fine), Google Drive, Vimeo — then paste that link here. It appears in the archive instantly for anyone visiting the site; clicking the tile opens the film to play.
Same idea, for shorter reels — paste the link once it’s hosted somewhere.
Drop photos here
or click to browse — multiple files at once. They’re resized for the web and published straight to the Photography page.
