Producer-Videographer
ABOUT ME
I started my creative journey when I was 14 as an urban photography enthusiast, capturing pictures with my phone. As time went on, I ventured into creating travel videos and learned how to use Premiere Pro. In 2018, one of my friends asked if I could shoot a concert since their videographer didn't show up. I agreed, and that experience made me realize that videography could be more than just a hobby.
In 2022, I made a bold decision and quit engineering school, despite my parents' preference, to fully immerse myself in video production, marketing, and business. I switched to a commerce program to support my new career path and started my own business. Embracing the world of freelancing has been an invaluable learning experience, teaching me a lot about the industry.
I'm grateful for the journey that has allowed me to pursue my passion wholeheartedly and turn it into a thriving business. Each day brings new challenges and opportunities, and I'm committed to continuously learning and growing in the field of video production and marketing. I'm excited about the future and all the possibilities it holds.

PRODUCER'S ASSISSTANT
As a coordinator for a music video project in Toronto featuring Savannah Re, I worked closely with the producer to manage logistics and ensure a smooth production process. I coordinated with the food catering company to arrange timely delivery and distribution of meals for the crew, and assisted on set by facilitating communication between the director's team, grip, and production crew. In pre-production, I was responsible for developing detailed callsheets and scheduling the day to ensure maximum efficiency and productivity.
SHAH
PRODUCTION MANAGER
As the production manager for a music video featuring renowned Persian artist Shahin Najafi, I led a team of 60 people, including 25+ crew members, 20 background actors, 10 main actors, and various sponsors and partners. With meticulous planning and coordination, I ensured that all parties and departments stayed on schedule throughout the 16-hour shoot. I managed transportation arrangements, organized food delivery, and maintained clear communication with the catering partner, security team, and location manager. Additionally, I oversaw a 6-person team , including a production coordinator and 5 production assistants, and served as the main point of contact for any questions or concerns about the project and schedule.
