Directing Producer · Remembering the Sacred | 2024 - present

I created "Remembering the Sacred", a 30-minute documentary made in a time when wellness had become an industry and ancient healing practices was being extracted from their spiritual roots, the film asks: what happens when we forget the Sacred?

To answer that question, I traveled across seven Thai provinces, sitting with spiritual elders and traditional folk medicine practitioners who carry knowledge that has been passed down for generations but rarely documented. Managing all aspects of production — research, scripting, travel logistics, budgeting, and post-production — I brought my journalism training and healing practice together to create a film to remind us of the wisdom the modern world urgently needs.

Remembering the Sacred is made for a generation of Thai people who feel the pull of their ancestral roots but do not always know how to find their way back. The film is currently in post-production and will be completed in 2026.
