A New York Story 🗽🎬 Hi everyone, I’m Wally Shaykhoun. I’m a half-Egyptian, half-Irish New Yorker, and for as long as I can remember, I’ve been obsessed with the "why" behind human behavior. My path hasn't been a straight line it’s been a journey through the visual arts of fashion photography, hair, and makeup, the high-stakes world of money trades, and most importantly, my work as an Inner Child facilitator and Shadow Work coach. For a long time, I saw these as separate chapters. But as I’ve grown, I realized they are all the same story. Whether I was executive producing "No Man’s Land" with Frank Grillo or co-writing "I Am Adam" with Nick Roddam, I was always looking for the psychological "mirror." I’ve realized that the most visceral films the ones that stick to your ribs like Whiplash or Nightcrawler are actually deep studies of the human shadow. Why I’m here: I’m currently building a film library and a new slate of projects alongside producer Gary Michael Walters. But beyond the business of film, I’m here because I believe in the power of cinema to map the inner workings of the soul. I’m moving toward my ideal life: one that is as cinematic as it is conscious. I’m excited to be part of a community that values the intersection of grit, psychology, and world-class storytelling. Looking forward to connecting with you all.

@Chad Desrochers with you as well
