This is for you if you are:

• An aspiring film student who wants to maximize your chances of getting into a top film school and need guidance from someone who’s been through the process.
• A filmmaker or creator who is developing a narrative film, commercial, or social media project and want an experienced perspective to help you execute your vision.
• Navigating the transition from student to professional filmmaker, and want practical advice on finding opportunities and growing your career.

A few things we can work on together:

• A film school application, portfolio, or personal statement that needs direction.
• A script, pitch deck, or treatment you’d like feedback on.
• A film project that’s stuck in development, financing, or production.
• A strategy for finding collaborators, clients, or professional opportunities.
• A plan to grow your audience and build your personal brand as a filmmaker.
• A career decision you’re struggling to make.

Whatever stage you’re at, the goal is simple: leave with more clarity, more confidence, and a practical plan for what comes next.

Your next step starts here.
