Intro

I joined this platform because it’s dedicated to creatives of color, and I felt it was the right space to share my experience and contribute meaningfully to the community. I’ve been working as a film editor on both feature films and short-form content, and last year I had the opportunity to direct two commercials tailored for the South Asian market.

My post-production facility in Mississauga is fully equipped with editing and color grading suites, allowing me to support a wide range of visual storytelling needs.

I’m excited to connect with fellow creatives and collaborate on projects, films and TV series that resonate with Canadian audiences and have the potential to reach global viewers as well.
