She loves telling stories in any format, which is why there is a variety of her works in this showcase. Her script The Torniles Case is a preview of a story/film that has been in the works for quite some time; the story itself is based on a short narrative that she wrote for an english assessment and loved so much that she decided to take it further. Aleesha is open to trying any medium for art or story telling and is happy she can share some of her work with the world.
