With a robust background in Canadian and international media, I'm a consummate professional in filmmaking. At MASS's Kigali Office, I thrived as a Filmmaker from March 2019 to August 2020, capturing the evolution of the Ellen DeGeneres Campus for the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, alongside other projects. My journey spans seven prolific years freelancing in Rwandan film and television. As a skilled writer, producer, editor, and photographer, I collaborated with prestigious entities including the Ellen Show, National Rwanda Television, CNN, DW, DDC International, Computer Aid International, Sage View Foundation and so on … Through these ventures, I honed my craft and nurtured a passion for storytelling through cinematography. My technical prowess behind the camera converged artistry and expertise, consistently delivering resonant narratives. Proud of my Rwandan heritage, I actively contribute to our media landscape. From TV productions to documentaries and captivating ads, my expertise extends beyond technicality, infusing authenticity into each project. A pinnacle was my involvement in the Ellen DeGeneres Campus project, connecting me with luminaries and catalyzing my international growth. This blend of Canadian excellence, Rwandan heritage, and global outreach shapes my perspective, amplifying the impact of every story I tell. My legacy is excellence and unwavering dedication to storytelling. I aspire to perpetuate dynamic narratives within my community and the wider continent. Collaboration, cultural insight, and steadfast commitment define my journey, enriching any team or project I engage with.
