ABOUT ME
When telling stories, I focus on the inner lives of my characters – to show the world from their perspective.
When it comes to directing, a lot of my inspiration comes from filmmakers like Sam Levinson, Paul Greengrass and Derek Cianfrance, who approach movies in a more grounded way, with a rough and gritty style.
BORN: 1996 IN FREIBURG GERMANY / BASED IN BERLIN
From cleaning cinemas as a day job to making films & videos for a career…
In 2014 I took part in my very first film project – back then, a friend told me about this crazy movie idea he had and I immediately knew that I wanted to help bring this project to life. After helping him out on his project, I decided to start my own – and this is how my first short film “The Best For You” was born.
I then decided to study filmmaking at the “Offenburg University of Applied Sciences” (m.gp – media design & production). After my bachelor’s degree, I started working as a cameraman & video producer while actively directing other film projects on the side.
