Aren has been a creative person since he was a young boy. In elementary school he would make props, wear costumes and write short plays. He would use his parents' camcorder to record his friends at skate parks and record family trips. In high school, Aren found a love for narrative filmmaking and discovered it was something he could choose as a career path. He made several short films in high school and college for various classes and extra-curricular competitions. Having lived in Australia, Canada and the United States, Aren has a broad perspective on life and takes that into his writing. Aren currently resides in Perth, Western Australia, and is studying film at SAE institute in Perth. His goal is to write and direct feature films in Australia and around the world. His hope is that Western Australia will become a hub of other creatives and is looking forward to seeing what can come of Perth in terms of Film and Television.
