I'm a London-based Director/Producer with a strong track record of creating documentaries and branded content for leading agencies and organisations.

​

In my independent work, I love telling stories about science, heritage, and memory through powerful, visual metaphors. My most recent film, ROT54: Armenia’s Forgotten Space Giant, commissioned by Al Jazeera English, tells the story of an Armenian radio astronomer. It was broadcast globally and won 'Best Short Documentary' at the Raw Science Film Festival.

 

One of my earlier projects, the documentary short Arquivo, explored the devastating tragedy of the National Museum in Rio de Janeiro. It marked my debut on the international festival circuit and earned a nomination for 'Best Documentary' in Rio.

​

Recently, I was also honoured to participate in the AFO Camp 4Science residency, where I won the Sandbox Films 'Best Pitch' Prize with my new feature documentary Near Life.
