About Me
Hi! I’m Ella. I’ve spent over a decade and a half working behind the scenes for some awesome films as an associate and assistant director, learning everything there is to know about making movies from the industry stalwarts. Now, after creating several shorts and documentaries independently, I’m ready to take the lead and direct OTT and features.
My style? It’s all about keeping it real and telling stories that matter. I believe films must entertain, and yet leave you thinking. Take a look around my site to see what I’ve been up to. If you like what you see, let’s chat and get on a cinematic adventure together!
