I am a growth focused leader, Independent Filmmaker, and dependable university student majoring in Film and Media Production at Arizona State University. I strive to be a passionate, visionary, and innovative problem solver within the filmmaking field. Film and Entertainment have always played a huge role in my life ever since I was a child growing up in San Jose, California. I have chosen the path of Filmmaking and Entertainment Providing as a way to create stories and impact audiences worldwide. It is my motivation, developed professionalism, and determination that is pushing me towards my Bachelor of Arts degree in Film and Media Production. This experience is allowing me to build productive relationships, write screenplays, and produce peer and individual projects. My biggest aspiration is to work in the film industry as a Director turning screenplays into a reality on the big screen. With my strong passion for everything that goes into the filmmaking process, I aim to create connections with other likeminded filmmakers and utilize marketing skills to produce original and entertaining products for audiences all over.
Special thanks to Infusion Coffee & Tea Crafters, The Bennett Family, and The Wagner Family (TRUE to BEAN Coffee) for helping bring this project to life. Thank you so much to everybody who supported, worked on, and watched this film. So much work went into this and the level of commitment and love I felt the entire time was unreal. Means the world to me. So much more to come.
