Chapter 01 · The Practice

A storyteller, rewired for the AI era.

I've spent the last seven years cutting film — the last two of them rebuilding that craft around generative video. My work sits between the old editorial discipline (pacing, rhythm, restraint) and the new pipelines (image-to-video, motion control, model-hopping mid-shot).

I ship cinematic ads, UGC that doesn't look like UGC, and — most recently — a twelve-minute AI short film built end-to-end across eight generative tools.
