ABOUT

DSC_0103_edited.jpg

I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, a quiet city nestled in the middle of a rustic state. Life growing up was slow. After high school, I decided that I had had enough of the open fields and lollygagging, so I made the big move across the country to a whole new way of life. I found myself a student of history at Oberlin College in the unanimously exalted state of Ohio. Now, you might be wondering how I, an uncooked jellybean with a history major, and creative writing minor (I might add), plan to make it in the world of cinema? Well, simply put, the same way you made it: some good ol' moxie.

​

Some qualities that might be of interest to you that I've inherited from no one but my own effort —well, I suppose maybe my parents had something to do with it at some point along the way— include: reading and critical analysis, promptness, fetching things (I was an excellent dog in another life, im sure of it), organizational skills, and various others I can pick up on the spot but will claim to have known the whole time.

​

What, ultimately, is the purpose of this website? Simply, and let me be earnest with you for 14 words, it's for you to see me and what I have to offer the world. I am a human. I have a story to share, as I believe we all do. I want to be a part of telling those stories.

 

And finally, ya want to know what Alexander Hamilton and I have in common? (2:53 Helpless, Hamilton)
