As a female director of Nepalese-Ukrainian heritage, I am committed to fostering diversity in storytelling and leadership. I am an imaginative director adept at storytelling, visual composition, and collaboration with creative teams. I have an established career in acting and more recently have also started writing and directing. My experience so far has been in short films and radio directing, alongside being in writing development for a feature film and drama series. Recently, I co-wrote and directed short film ‘Sleepeater’ for Decay Studio, set for the 2025 festival circuit. I have been lucky enough to shadow directors, producers and DOPs on high end productions such as Starz’s The Serpent Queen and Showtime’s Patrick Melrose. Alongside the insight I already have into the running of a set as an actress, this additional privilege has given me a solid understanding of the pre and post production stages. My first short, “The Carer” screened at festivals including BUFF connects, Underwire and British Shorts Berlin in 2022.
