About
Biography
I am an award-winning film and television director and screenwriter, holding an MFA in Cinematic Arts. I also hold a Master of Arts in Serial Storytelling from the International Film School of Cologne, Germany, completed in December 2018. Previously, I taught university-level media production and design.
In 2012, I received the Golden Award at PromaxBDA Arabia for a television teaser I wrote and directed. In 2017, my first feature film, Slingshot, was an official selection at the Mediterranean Film Festival in Cannes and the Calcutta International Film Festival.
My vision is to use my passion for storytelling to share meaningful human experiences. I believe my expertise, combined with my team-oriented and optimistic outlook, will allow me to make a positive contribution to any organization.
Kindly find enclosed my media portfolio, which summarizes my educational background, qualifications, and technical skills. Thank you for your time and consideration.
