I began my journey at Södra Latin’s Film and TV program before heading to Montclair State University in New Jersey to dive deeper into Broadcasting and Film. My first steps into the industry were spent carrying cables, grabbing coffees, and watching masters like Jonas Åkerlund and Johan Renck at work, lessons you can’t learn in a classroom. Since then, I’ve explored the worlds of feature films, commercials, and documentaries. No matter the format, my compass is always the same: tell a story that captivates, with characters that stay with you long after the screen goes dark.
