Summary

I'm an 18-year-old college student majoring in Film Studies at California State University, Northridge. Throughout the past few years, I’ve been able to work alongside many creatives and expand the horizons of my creativity. I like to bring creativity and a fresh perspective to each project. Currently, I am exploring the intersection of photography and filmmaking. I'm very dedicated to honing my skills in composition and editing, aiming to create impactful narratives through both stills and motion. Always eager to learn and collaborate, I'm committed to growing as an artist in the dynamic world of visual media.
