Adrian earned his BFA at the Toronto Metropolitan University’s Image Arts Film program and recently completed his MFA in Scriptwriting and Story Design at TMU. Adrian has worked in the edit suite for big names like CBC Comedy, CBC Docs, The History Channel, and BBC Earth. In 2022, he wrote and directed the award-winning short film The Middle, which is currently streaming on CBC Gem. Adrian’s feature script, The 300 Year Old Man, won the 2023 Jim Burt Prize from the Writers Guild of Canada for the best unproduced feature-length screenplay.

The through lines of Adrian’s work are a playful approach to structure and form, and a focus on bringing humour to heartrending stories. As a filmmaker living with Crohn’s disease, Adrian is passionate about sharing the experiences of individuals living with invisible disabilities and chronic illnesses.

When Adrian’s not making movies, he’s experimenting with a new gluten-free recipe, perfecting his curling game, or charting his next camping trip.
