I've been making movies and telling stories my entire life. With my dad's Sony camera (which used tape!), and Windows Movie Maker on the family's Gateway computer, I was filming and editing my own movies ever since I could hold a camera.
When I took my first film theory class in my hometown of Pasco, WA in 2017, I instantly fell in love with film and knew that was what I wanted to do with my life. This was when I started making movies with my friends. I was lucky enough to enter our local film festival, which marked my first time ever screening one of my own films in a theater alongside other great filmmakers.
In 2019, I moved to Malibu to chase my dreams and attended Pepperdine University to study filmmaking. Shortly after graduating, I started working at Mocean, where I am currently editing promotional content for some of the biggest films and entertainment products in the world, while also continuing to write and direct my own films.
