Director · Writer · ProducerCupid's Valentine explores love in its many forms through a symbolic and visually driven lens. As the first production I directed, it was a formative experience that strengthened my understanding of how to organize a project from concept to execution and collaborate across departments. It taught me how to clearly communicate a creative vision while staying adaptable throughout the process—an approach that continues to shape how I lead and build projects today.

Production DesignStorytelling was central to the music video's visual approach. To convey the feeling of a lonely childhood, I focused on building subtle environmental cues that suggested family separation and the lasting impact it can have while growing up. Through details such as plastic wrap, moving boxes, and sparsely dressed spaces, I aimed to evoke a sense of transition, nostalgia, and emotional distance. These elements helped shape an atmosphere that supported the narrative while allowing the audience to connect with the artist's experience in a quiet, visual way.

Okidi, a floral company, commissioned a narrative production to showcase their arrangements in a glamorous, elevated setting. Working closely with the client, I organized unique floral compositions and developed a visual world that used colour, texture, and composition to highlight the flowers as sculptural elements.

About this shoot
Commissioned by ROSHANAK for her debut EP, Dollhouse Diaries, exploring the experience of being treated as a toy within an abusive relationship. To translate these themes into a visual world, I designed and constructed an eerie, life-sized dollhouse that embodied ideas of control, objectification, and emotional confinement.
About this shoot
A wedding in Puerto Rico and my first experience photographing a wedding. The shoot was an opportunity to capture the day’s intimacy, emotion, and celebration while working within the venue’s vibrant landscapes and natural beauty.
About this shoot
Set against a fun, fresh, and energetic picnic setting, this shoot brought the 2026 ASICS Canada × Next Up Mag Ambassadors together in a playful, lifestyle-driven environment. I designed and incorporated custom props that highlighted both ASICS and Next Up branding, creating a cohesive visual identity throughout the shoot.
About this shoot
Drawing on the concept of a trophy room, this shoot introduced the 2025 Ambassadors selected for the ASICS Canada × Next Up Mag incubator program. The visual concept celebrated their achievements and positioned each ambassador as a reflection of the program’s focus on emerging talent, growth, and excellence.
About this shoot
Shot for ASICS Canada × Next Up Mag, this project focused on showcasing ASICS’ latest release, the NOVABLAST 6, alongside professional long-distance runner and ambassador Zakary Mama-Yarri. The creative direction highlighted both the performance and visual appeal of the shoe while capturing Zakary’s athleticism and connection to the sport.
About this shoot
Parasite explores how toxic love can transform us in destructive ways. Working closely with the client, I was given creative control over the visual direction and used the project to experiment with new post-production techniques. Through layered textures and unconventional editing, I enhanced the eerie atmosphere and reinforced the narrative within each image.
About this shoot
With full creative control over NYRE’s annual Halloween shoot, I built an indoor pool set to evoke a siren’s den. Using layered netting, atmospheric fog, and dramatic lighting, I transformed the space into an eerie, otherworldly environment that captured the dark and mysterious spirit of Halloween.
About this shoot
For her winter production, I directed and built a small winter forest set. Working closely with the lighting team and stylists, I ensured that each aspect of the shoot evoked a cold snowy atmosphere.

Production DesignerFor this heartbreak-driven track, I focused on creating a visual world that felt honest, intimate, and restrained. Through space, texture, and composition, I aimed to support the emotion of the song while staying true to the artist's personal experiences.

Set DesignThe concept for this live session centered on creating a warm, intimate living-space environment. Since the shoot took place in a blank studio, it was important to build that atmosphere through carefully chosen practical lighting, props, and layered set dressing that felt natural and lived-in. The approach focused on shaping a space that supported the artist's vocals and lyricism without overwhelming them, using subtle visual details to draw the audience closer into the performance.

Set DesignerWith just three days to source and build the sets, I had to work efficiently while making sure each space still felt thoughtful and complete. Working closely with the producer, I learned to navigate tight timelines, source props creatively on a budget, and focus on the details that brought each set together while keeping the overall vision cohesive.

Production DesignerThis production was my first time working in a location with a strong visual identity, shifting my focus from large-scale set building to more detailed set dressing.
