Carson Mejia
Harrow,ON
Summary
My name is Carson Mejia and I'm a hard working guy no matter where I find myself. My strongest skillsets would lie in the creative arts such as film making, photography, music production, video & content creation or anything that gets my creative juices flowing. I love coming up with new ideas and vision for creating things people would want to see. I love to entertain, inspire and make people laugh when I get the chance.
I know when to lighten the mood, but I also know when to be professional, taking each job I have very seriously.
