About Me

"Life is like a camera. Focus, Capture and Develop. If it doesn't work out then take another shot" I believe this quote helps explain who I am.
I like to focus on trend, culture and atmosphere.
Capture them by living in the moment for I love to learn as well as teach.
Develop many friendships from the experiences.
I am very adaptable to my surroundings and very easy to get along with. I'm more of a listener than a talker. Dalai Lama said it best "When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know. But if you listen, you may learn something new."
My hobbies include photography. I love it and been doing it for almost 6 years. A close second is videography. I love to vlog and share my journey through comedic contents. My current new hobby is flying my drone. I own two 😁. I love to hike and have had amazing journeys through Red Rock Canyon, the Grand Canyon, Mt Zion, Arches and Joshua Tree. I'm also very active at sports. I've played 14 years of hockey. Played basketball, track, tennis, auto racing and volleyball.

Music, Movies, and Books

I will always have my ties to Hip Hop. It is my root and I love what has followed in its path. Not so much into the mainstream hip hop. Everything else that has influences of hip hop as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An organization called candle lighters. I took part on being a bigger brother to little kids that we're fighting cancer. Their lives affected the way I saw how I lived my life day to day.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teach the craft I have passion for. Photography is the main hobby that I love to get involved in teaching people.

I'd love to learn their craft as well or whatever they are passionate about. Understanding a person through what they're passionate about is a quicker and deeper way of understanding what they're about to me.

Ive never been a selfish person and if I can share all of what I have from knowledge or to an inanimate object like flying my drone I'm all for it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

FOOD... rounds of drinks.... FOOD! haha what can i say i also love food. I always carry my camera around and I always tend to take candid photos to help capture moments that can last through the years.

Cambodia, Canada, Japan, Viet Nam
