ABOUT

As a 23 year old Malaysian-American filmmaker working primarily in the comedy genre, my short films have won awards and distinctions at festivals including Flicker’s Rhode Island International Film Festival, Beverly Hills Film Festival, Blackbird Film Festival and the Houston Comedy Film Festival, where he was the Best Dark Comedy Award Winner of 2023.

Most recently, my NYU Undergraduate thesis short film, the politically-charged and darkly comedic “The American” has been selected to premiere at the prestigious and Oscar-qualifying Cinequest Film Festival, as well as being an Official Selection of the Beverly Hills Film Festival. (The film is currently still in its festival run.)

Furthermore, my work has been featured on publications such as Forbes, Rice and Spice Magazine as well as on YouTube, X and other online platforms to virality and over hundreds of thousands of views and acclaim.

Outside of the film-festival circuit, I've also been involved with other creative and artistic avenues, from collaborating with musicians such as Panthurr (best known for his collaborations with YouTuber Casey Neistat), to working as creative marketing director for start-ups such as Volay Brands. Along with my personal passion projects, I have also worked as a creative director and script analyst with production companies such as Fair Harbor Productions and Mark Victor Productions.
