Passionate about movies ever since I begged my parents to let me watch Terminator 2 when I was a child.
I have always been obsessed with watching movies. When I was young, I would go to the mall with my parents and while they shopped, I would go hang out near the movie theater and just stare at movie posters wondering what the films were about.
When I entered high school, I began editing home videos linear style by hooking up our camcorder to a VHS player and hitting stop and record to create edits. To make them seem more cinematic, I would also input a Sony Discman to the VHS player so the scenes could have music. I was hooked with what I created.
Fast forward to college where I studied films in hopes to become a film critic. I quickly realized that I enjoyed filming, editing, directing, and making content much more than I did discussing it. I began to study all forms of filmmaking with an insane obsession to learn more. This included film analysis and film theories. That thirst for knowledge has remained to this day.
I love watching movies, studying film, and making content.
Nothing gives me more pleasure than creating something that will cause a reaction from the viewer. Telling stories will never be something I get tired of doing.

I got to meet Werner Herzog once and I was pleased with how similar his unique voice sounds in all of documentary narration.
Learn the rules. And then break them.
