Currently a student at Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema at Concordia University, he is seeking to develop a cinematic style that encompasses both narrative and non-narrative forms, influenced by his professional and educational background in engineering, as well as his long standing engagements with social justice, theater, and writing.
