Justin Leon

Justin Leon was born in Costa Rica and raised in East Hampton, New York. Although he has worked alongside his tradesman father in house painting and construction business, Just has always aspired to become a filmmaker. This led him to CalArts where he graduated with a BFA in Film and Video, demonstrating the same work ethic and passion he learned in the family business. As part of the working middle class of the affluent Hamptons, Justin has unique perspectives. He knows they will lead him to becoming an editor and director of films that speak of diversity and the socio-politics of the underrepresented individual.
