"I'm not here to fit into your world. I'm here to make my own." Lulu Wang, writer and director
When I first ventured into documentary filmmaking, I was struck by the immense potential of film as a tool for personal and social transformation. As filmmakers, we have the opportunity and responsibility to use our platform for good, creating works that educate, inspire, and drive positive change.
Through my own experiences collaboratively crafting documentaries, I've witnessed firsthand how these films can open minds, touch hearts, and galvanize communities into action. There's something incredibly powerful about the way a well-told story can connect us across boundaries and inspire us to see the world in a new light.
I believe that documentary film, as well as other genres, have the power to change lives and transform our world for the better.

I will always be grateful to Haida Paul, and Peter Wintonick for generously sharing their love and expertise with me. The NFB provided me with countless opportunities to excel and grow as a creative.
Among the many films I had the chance to work on, there are several that hold a special place in my heart, and I will always cherish the experiences and lessons gained from each one of them.
