The Directing Den
Here, shadows move. Faces flicker. The world tilts just slightly off-kilter.
Directing, for me, is about inviting the audience into a dream — sometimes warm, sometimes unsettling, always alive. My style leans into the surreal and the cinematic, drawing from the small-town dread of Stephen King, the neon nightmares of Lynch, and the sharp bite of Heathers.
This den is where vision takes shape and strange stories step into the light.
