Arabic:

وَأَن لَّيْسَ لِلْإِنسَانِ إِلَّا مَا سَعَىٰ”


"وَأَنَّ سَعْيَهُ سَوْفَ يُرَىٰ

English:

“And that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives, and that his effort is going to be seen.”

-Surah An-Najm (53:39-40)

I value telling other people’s stories because they lead me back to mine. Creativity, to me, is rooted in honesty and vulnerability. Behind the camera, everything begins to fall into place—the dots of my story connect, shedding light on unknown connections .

As a young Muslim director from Northwest Ohio, I describe myself as an introvert drawn to storytelling as a form of self-expression. While bringing light to others, I am also searching for my own. This journey is what fuels my fascination with dark-toned cinema—a style that mirrors my emotional mindset and inner reflection. As a method editor and videographer, shifts in tone become visual metaphors for how I feel in the moment and in my daily life.

My faith teaches me to look inward and ask for guidance in everything I do. Through film, I find a space where that inward search becomes a piece of outward art. This path is about spotlighting others and myself—revealing reality, asking questions, and capturing moments that help me see a little more clearly.


Surah Al-Anfal (8:53)

ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ ٱللّهَ لَمْ يَكُ مُغَيِّرًۭا نّعْمَةً أَنْعَمَهَا عَلَىٰ قَوْمٍ حَتّىٰ يُغَيِّرُوا۟

مَا بِأَنفُسِهِمْ وَأَنَّ ٱللّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ

"That is because Allah would not change a favor which He had bestowed upon a people until they change what is within themselves. And indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing."
