Creativity Unleashed.
This is what I can fully do, given no strings attached.
My favorite projects I have ever worked on are not commercial or overly directed. They are the ones where I can fully showcase my love for the art of videography and storytelling. With thousands of views and multiple press publications of praise, these are my favorite projects that I hope can give you a glimpse of what power good storytelling holds.

Stay Inside | A Toast to the Frontline
“This is a toast to those who put their lives on the line to make our world a safer place when the COVID-19 pandemic impacted millions of communities and families across the world. This is a toast to the teacher, the doctor, the nurse. A toast to the student, the mailman, the chef. A toast to the first responder, the custodian, and the small business owner. A toast to the mothers and fathers who became teachers and physicians over night. This is a toast to thank you. To let you know that your stories will be heard, and that your life saving and life changing sacrifices are the inspiration to make this world a healthier place now and forever. After 6 months of planning, filming, producing, and editing on top of countless hours of communication, we proudly present to you "Stay Inside" - A Toast to the Frontline. Inspired by the power ballad of Kanye West's "Runaway," we wrote and produced an original power ballad of our own that seeks to capture the trials and beautiful triumphs of the essential worker as they risked their lives to serve their communities in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. With contributors from over 45 different healthcare systems, schools, emergency response units, non-profits, and more, we were able to listen to the stories of these essential workers across the country and share a glimpse of their powerful perseverance through their photos." This entire production was the passion project of just three medical students at the Medical College of Georgia: Andy Nguyen (2024), Tyler Beauchamp (2023), and Rushay Amarath-Madav (2023). Without a large crew or formal budget, we understood the importance of sharing the stories of these frontline heroes that we are training to one day become. In between the long hours of studying that med school entails, our experience in filmmaking, music, and audio engineering drove us to ensure that this message would be heard loud and clear wherever you are in the world.”

reasons why you should date a med student
Filmed in a single afternoon, this cinematic short takes the point of view of a single medical student in his/her early 20s. Throughout this short, the student fights to navigate feelings of helplessness as the infamous Valentine’s Day comes around. Between personal insecurities and practical responsibilities, trying a hand at dating while in the middle of medical training is no easy task. However, the things that are learned throughout medical school are not roadblocks that inhibit the process of building a relationship, but in fact may be the very characteristics that make a person a secure and welcome partner. This is the story of what many students in medical training internally combat on a daily basis, and how a simple paradigm shift may make all the difference.
an early lesson in med school burn out
A simple exercise in storytelling without words, this is a visual and audio depiction of what many students and healthcare professionals refer to as “burn out.” This feeling, although not exactly clinically diagnosable, is typically associated with overworking, lack of self-care, insomnia, increased anxiety, decreased mood and energy…I think you start to get the picture. Making this was not a cry for help, but more a beacon of hope for the thousands of students watching who may be feeling the same way. Because the first step to overcoming this feeling is realizing that you are not alone. That this is not a battle to be fought in isolation. And that these seasons will pass as long as we support each other, together.
