About Me
Filmmaker
I'm a film director with an editing and visual effects background based in Cyprus.
My debut feature film SMARAGDA - I GOT THICK SKIN AND I CAN’T JUMP had its world premiere in the First Feature Competition at PÖFF | TALLINN BLACK NIGHTS FILM FESTIVAL 2024 which received funding from Creative Europe MEDIA and the Cyprus Deputy Ministry of Culture. I'm a First Films First, Torino Film Lab, Midpoint Institute, Mediterranean Film Institute and Talents Sarajevo alumnus. I wrote and directed the award-winning short films REARRANGEMENT (2018) and BAD HABITS (2016).
I've worked as an editor and visual effects artist on acclaimed film projects, both abroad and in my home country and have also created numerous music videos. My latest editing work for the film Find Me Falling by Stelana Kliris, is streaming on Netflix worldwide. I am currently in development of my second feature film BOYS OF SUMMER.
