"Pierced" is a short film about a young girl who, after being inspired by her friends, decides to get her ears pierced, but must overcome her fear of needles. This was inspired by my sister, Mia, who stars in the film, who wanted to pierce her ears, but was a little too scared to.

I began to work on this project sophmore year when I had the idea to make a batman movie told from the perspective of the villains. I had wanted to be a filmaker for a long time, and I thought instead of just waiting for adulthood to start my filmaking journey, why couldn't I just start it as a teenager?

"Downhill" is a montage about Downhill skateboarding. I wanted to capture the feeling of joy that can be accomplished with doing an activity you love with someone else, and how much better it makes things.

The airport is a place of great importance for me because it is where my dreams started. The airport has brought me to different parts of the world, in the past eight years of my immigration journey. All footage of the airport comes from me.

Utilizing 2D animation on Clip Studio Paint, I depict the experience of a young girl experiencing prom. Animated to the song "Prom Dress" by Mxmtoon; I relate to this animated piece heavily, as I too have experienced times of loneliness and social hardship in high school as well.

This animation reel, “Scenes From a Ghibli Movie,” contains four animations I completed throughout 2023.

Danville Chocolates is a fun documentary taking the audience on a behind the scenes look at the local chocolate store. It teaches how different candies are made and how the buisiness runs.

I couldn't think of a plot as I was going through a massive writers block at the time and I decided that instead of continuing to try and push through the block, I would use it as motivation for my film itself as an attempt to capture what I went through with some additional comedic (hopefully) bits.

I’ve had the idea for a film about a woman freezing alone in her home for a while. Despite her efforts, she is unable to warm up. I thought it would be an interesting challenge to film something in the dark, and I had some difficulties but it made me be more intentional with how I used lighting.
