Growing up in a small farm town, I often felt out of place, too quiet, too strange, too different from the world around me. Film, music, and art became the first places I felt understood. The atmospheric worlds of Tim Burton and David Lynch showed me that “odd” could be powerful. That darkness could be beautiful. That abstraction could hold truth.

My work lives in that tension.

I am deeply influenced by horror and the emotional weight it carries, not simply for fear, but for its ability to expose what society hides. I am interested in stories that confront injustice, power, survival, and identity. Whether through supernatural narratives or grounded historical worlds, I aim to create films that disturb gently, provoke honestly, and linger long after the screen fades to black.

I create across film, music, and fine art, refusing to confine myself to a single medium. Each project is an act of world-building, an invitation into spaces where outsiders are centered, where vulnerability is strength, and where so-called “oddities” become sources of power.

Above all, my work is about creating space.

Space for those who have felt unseen.

Space for truth.

Space to become.
