Currently, I am shifting to focus on feature-length documentary editing. I'm focusing on editing because I love the process of creating meaning through timing and the juxtaposition of images. I have an interest in telling immigrant stories, starting with my own family's. I am a 2021 Docs in Progress Fellow, working on a documentary that weaves together oral histories from each of my relatives. Together, they paint an intergenerational portrait of life in China and Singapore from the 1940s-1970s before their immigration to Canada.
