When I was 11 I picked up a video camera to film my friend doing a kickflip. I’ve yet to put it down.

I grew up in a Topanga Canyon tree house with an Iranian father and a Bolivian mother. The unique cultures which on paper seem like polar opposite (because they are), has influenced the way I approach filmmaking. I come at my work diplomatically, with an open mind and a focus on diversity, culture, and genuine curiosity.

Being a part of this ever evolving craft since a young age, I’ve been lucky to have had the opportunity to work in the field from national advertising and corporate clients to narrative and documentary filmmaking.
