Director Statement

When I had cancer, I envisioned myself as a warrior made of light, trekking through the void and illuminating everything he touched. No fear, darkness, or monster could take that away from me. If I died, I would accept my destiny with bloody hands, swinging my fists into the night. I wanted to capture this chapter of my life and send that frequency out to the stars, hoping it might help others in their own personal battles.
