as a Filmmaker

I’m a director and storyteller rooted in truth, ritual, and resilience. With over 15 years of experience as a 1st AD and 2nd AD in the Directors Guild of America, I’ve shaped hundreds of stories from behind the scenes—now I’m stepping into the frame to tell my own.

My work explores emotional survival, identity, and unseen histories, with a focus on Latine, Indigenous, and underrepresented voices. Whether crafting a psychological thriller or a quiet bar scene in St. Petersburg, I direct with clarity, empathy, and an unwavering commitment to authenticity.

I’m currently developing original short films and narrative projects that challenge the industry’s expectations of who gets to lead—and what stories deserve the spotlight.
