What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities to grow in film production, focusing on creative collaboration and skill development.

I am a passionate filmmaker with a Higher Certificate in Film and Television and a Bachelor of Arts in Motion Picture Medium. My journey in the film industry began with internships at reputable companies such as KYK NET and Favour Media, where I honed my skills as a Camera Assistant and Gaffer. These experiences have equipped me with a solid foundation in various aspects of film production.

In addition to my camera work, I have also explored sound design and film editing during my time at AFDA. My role as a Sound Designer and Film Editor allowed me to understand the intricacies of post-production, further enhancing my storytelling capabilities. I am eager to contribute my creativity and technical skills to future projects in the film industry.
