He began his career creating narrative music videos for both independent and major record labels, earning multiple Vimeo Staff Picks and millions of views. His micro-budget debut feature THE CEREMONY premiered at the 77th Edinburgh International Film Festival in 2024, where it won the inaugural Sean Connery Prize for Feature Filmmaking Excellence and was nominated for two BIFAs.
