About me:
As a dedicated film student with hands-on experience in producing and directing independent documentaries and short films, I excel in creative, collaborative environments. With well-developed skills in pre-production, team coordination, and scriptwriting, I am eager to contribute to professional productions and deepen my understanding of the art of filmmaking through firsthand experience.
