I am an experienced actor and still model with a huge passion for acting. I am also a professional filmmaker trained at the University of Auckland, Master in Screen Production. I've worked as Assistant Director for TVCs, Feature films and TV series. I have also worked in several China-New Zealand co-productions as production coordinator and translator. My self-written and directed short films have been selected and screened in many international film festivals and winning some of the awards have given me the courage to continue with my journey in becoming a better storyteller.
