I'm a filmmaker and artist based in New York City. My practice moves across film, sound, and material processes, often focusing on ritual and time.
My work has screened at Lincoln Center, Roxy Cinema, Union Docs, and internationally, receiving awards including the Grand Prix at Montreal Underground Film Festival, Jury Awards (Jaipur and Ann Arbor Film Festivals) and a Director Award (Black Maria). I've received support from The New York State Council on the Arts, the Jerome Foundation, and the Cultural Fund of the European Council.
As a freelancer, I've worked with the Criterion Collection, the Whitney Museum's Andy Warhol Film Project, and on feature films including Barney's Wall and Stardust: The Story of Love and Architecture, among others.
I hold master's degrees in Czech Language and Literature, Digital Media, and Film Production and have taught
editing, sound, and graphics at the New School.
