Education

Master of Fine Arts at American Film Institute
August 20, 2017 - December 30, 2019
During my master's program at AFI, my curriculum included both practical and theoretical components. At AFI, I directed four narrative films with budgets ranging from 4K to 35K. In these projects, I led large production teams of up to 50+, ensuring their safety, motivation, and strict adherence to union guidelines and regulations throughout the process. I also actively participated in various aspects of film production, including writing, producing, and editing for approximately a dozen other films. On the theoretical side, I participated in enriching masterclasses focusing on directing, cinematic design, and storytelling, led by renowned filmmakers such as Paul Thomas Anderson, Quentin Tarantino, and Steven Spielberg.
Bachelor of Arts at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki
September 9, 2011 - November 10, 2015
During my studies at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, I pursued a major in Language & Linguistics, which significantly influenced my perspective on language. My coursework covered a broad spectrum, including the history of language from the Proto-Indo-European era to its evolution in the European and Western context. I delved into the phonetic aspects of language and explored its profound implications in the realms of psychology and education. Additionally, I pursued a minor in the study of Ancient Greek texts, Greek Literature, and Poetry from the Byzantine to the Neohellenic Era, broadening my understanding of the rich literary traditions within the Greek language.
