I love stories, in all shapes and sizes. Especially the ones hidden within the tiny crevices of our daily life,

waiting to be unearthed.  

​

The overlapping sounds from a construction site are the underlying beat of a new song. 

A loud conversation on a crowded bus is a tense movie scene.

A partygoer's revealed life story is a cautionary tale that people need to hear.

​

Nothing comforts me more than sitting elbow to elbow with strangers in a darkened cinema; crying, laughing, fearing and learning with, and about, other human beings.

​

Art, in any form, is more than simple escapism. It is a mirror held up to ourselves and the society around us. The good, the bad, the ugly, and the unknown. And, the art reveals our response to those things, enabling us to learn about ourselves.

​

There is no mirror I'd rather gaze into than a movie screen. But, I want to do more than look into it. I want to be on the other side of it, taking responsibility for creating it.
