Ladakh: Is Peaceful Coexistence Possible?
After studying for a year among some incredible cinematographers and filmmakers, I set out to create a documentary in the northern tip of India. I was inspired by the way the people there lived their lives with such peace and integrity despite vast cultural differences. This documentary project is an ode to them.

Women of Kasar Devi
In this documentary project I explore the lives of women from a small village called Kasar Devi, in India's Uttarakhand state.
The holy village, has been the place where many monks attained enlightenment. It captured the intrigue of the likes of Steve Jobs, The Beatles and even NASA scientists who studied the effects of extraordinary magnetic energy in the area.
Despite this, we uncovered a host of issues that the rural women there face ranging from domestic abuse, to extreme work loads. This documentary offers an in depth view into their lives and struggles and what they believe could be a solution to them.
