I am a Chilean-German filmmaker working across directing, producing, and screenwriting. My creative drive is rooted in a deep curiosity for identity, belonging, and the spaces in between.
Born in Chile, and raised between Boston and Germany, I grew up moving between cultures, languages, and ways of seeing the world. This in-between experience became a creative engine for me - a place of both conflict and inspiration.
My most notable project to date is the short film Un Abrazo, funded by Nordmedia. I served as director, producer, and editor, overseeing the film from initial concept through post-production.
In addition to my own projects, I've worked as a production assistant for Cineteam Hannover GmbH and Emelie Girardin Produktion, gaining hands-on experience in both commercial and narrative film environments.
I am passionate about bold storytelling, visual sensitivity, and the collaborative nature of filmmaking. My goal is to create work that resonates emotionally and reflects the complexity of human experience - especially across cultures.
