About
Ever since I was a kid, I’ve viewed the world through a cinematic lens, eager to tell a vibrant story through imagery. I’ve enriched my skill sets within the realm of the physical and the art of the tactile. I bring razor-sharp focus to the creative process, with a strong emphasis on effective team management, collaboration, and communication. Beneath an introverted exoskeleton lies a nerd with a passion for movies, motorsports, and, more recently, TTRPGs. Rolling continuous Nat-20s is my life goal.
