Representation for Film/TV:
THE ARTISTS PARTNERSHIP
My films, which often explore teenage and intergenerational relationships, explore complex themes wrapped up in whimsy, charm, and a dose of magic, allowing them to entertain, connect with, and inspire global audiences of all ages. With a uniquely diverse lens, my storytelling brings viewers into worlds that are both fresh and totally relatable.
My work has been screened at Academy Award qualifying festivals like Toronto International Film Festival, at institutions like the MoMA, have won several awards (3x Best Director, 7x Best Film, more), and have been used as alternative educational tools in schools and organizations to help children and families better understand life’s more intangible concepts.
