You make me happy.
What fuels me is change; from within a society. Stories are a large part of how we do that, without them we don’t know who we are.

I like your smile.
I believe imagination can take you anywhere.
I hope we can reach the hearts of the people who feel hurt and unseen, and make Callback an environment so welcoming that people feel free to show their full potential.
I am unsure of a lot of things and I have a lot of things to learn. I think it's a huge strength to talk about what's not alright, what we are unsure of and what scares us.

I believe in you.
Since childhood I’ve been glued to the window of many possibilities, or as we call it, the television screen, the silver screen. From the get go I understood that what’s being displayed is not real, which made me abandon traditional kids entertainment, & was since then much more fascinated of mature storytelling.
I aspire to create profound visual & auditory spectacles that’ll make sure to blow people’s minds. Intricate stories with levels of depth within both its intrigue & its characters, while trying to define reality & what it means to exist within it.
Always had an innate desire to tell stories, even if they were perceived as lies.

Keep going.
Movies have always been a way for me to connect to people.
Growing up with autism, I struggled to communicate with others. Movies became a way for me to learn about “conversation,” as they depict real life issues. They helped me navigate feelings of confusion, sadness, and fear. I aspire to impact people through film, just as it has impacted me.
During my time at Sydney Film School I was nominated for Best Screenplay and Best Director twice, winning the Best Director award once. My biggest and proudest achievement was being selected for the Talent to Watch program alongside six other participants from 2021 to 2022. This competition, made possible by the Swedish Film Institute, aimed to discover new talents.
In Sweden, I have worked on films such as the Guldbagge Award-winning “Trädgårdsgatan/Garden Lane” and have worked as an assistant to line producer Thomas Nilsson throughout the entire production of the world renowned fourth season of “The Bridge.”
I believe I can offer a unique perspective as a screenwriter by drawing on the emotionally charged experiences from my upbringing, which can help others convey and manage emotions more effectively in their own scripts.
