With a Greek father and a Mexican mother, Cimela loves to travel, especially to her father’s homeland, the island of Crete. She comes from a family of storytellers, she says, so telling stories through film comes naturally to her. When she’s not globe-trotting with a camera in hand, Cimela lives in Houston, Texas. Cimela is a graduate of the University of Saint Thomas in Texas with a degree in Communications. Cimela is also working on the related film Apparition Hill.
