My Writing Style

I write stories that explore the eerie, the emotional, and the unknown — often diving into themes of isolation, morality, and transformation. My screenwriting and prose work spans horror, thriller, and drama, always grounded in immersive worlds with ties to real-world and fictional folklore, complex characters, and the unsettling beauty of the unexpected.
