I'm a Creative Director, Video Editor, and AI Content Creator with over 6 years of professional experience across Sri Lanka and New Zealand. My work sits at the intersection of cinematic craft and emerging technology — using AI tools as creative collaborators, not shortcuts.

Holding a BSc (Hons) in Computing from London Metropolitan University and professional camera & lighting training from the Sri Lanka Rupavahini Corporation, I bring both technical rigour and an artist's eye to every project. Currently completing a Professional Certificate in 3D Animation & VFX at the Informatics Institute of Technology.

As Executive Creative Designer at Rose Oud Cafe, I lead brand identity, photography, videography, and digital content strategy. Previous collaborations include celebrated Sri Lankan artists Pradeepa Dharmadasa and Ridmi Uthpala, and leading brands such as Pintanna Holdings.

I specialise in AI-powered video & image creation using Runway, Sora, Kling, and Pika — pioneering generative storytelling for brands that want to lead, not follow.
