Biography
I joined Wilfrid Laurier University in 2024, where I oversee the department’s production courses. I hold both BFA and MFA degrees from York University’s Film Production program and bring extensive industry experience in directing, screenwriting, and editing into the classroom.
As a practicing filmmaker, I completed my Telefilm-funded directorial feature debut, "His Father’s Son", in 2024. Additionally, I served as Associate Producer on the feature "Concrete Valley", which screened at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival and the 2023 Berlinale.
