About

Hello! I’m Rishwa Thakkar, currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Humanities with a focus on Communication Studies and Media Arts at McMaster University. I’m passionate about film production and enjoy working collaboratively in all stages of the creative process. I love diving into editing and post-production to bring stories to life.

Outside academics, I’ve had the opportunity to develop leadership skills as the President of the McMaster Film Production Club and gained valuable hands-on experience in various roles including student representation and customer service jobs. I enjoy sports, music, reading, and cooking in my free time and am always eager to learn and grow professionally.
