Hey! I'm Monty.
(Short for Montgomery)

I'm a Canadian filmmaker and documentarian, residing in Toronto, Canada (and sometimes Miami).

I fell in love with film when I was about 12, and the moment I did, my mom made me watch all the black & white, 3-hour-plus-long classics (like Seven Samurai, and Metropolis)—which I thought were boring at the time, but now I thank her for.

I studied film and philosophy in University and officially started my film journey in 2018, when I filmed my Opa's short documentary about his escape from Estonia in 1944. Later that year I worked for a vfx studio as a Production Coordinator, working on blockbuster films, such as Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Spider-Man: Far From Home, Hobbs & Shaw, and Monster Hunter. Soon after, I started cutting my teeth on film sets and music videos as a PA, or with the G&E teams as a grip or a spark. I've been writing screenplays for the past few years and have started my directorial portfolio in the hopes to tell the exciting and impactful stories that inspired me.
