CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world and learn more about other cultures and people. To always thrive and grow, and to never forget experiencing, living, and learning.

ABOUT ME

Born in a small military town, I spent my childhood in rural Russia until 1996. In May, my family and I were moved to the United States, settling in Rochester, Minnesota. After living in Minnesota, I moved to LA to study cinematography at UCLA.
Having recently graduated, I plan to shoot features, and hope to direct my own work very soon.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop experiencing. No matter what opportunity strikes you, never hesitate to accept it, because you will never know the outcome until you live through it. Whether it be an incredible adventure, a blessing, an arduous task, or a mortifying journey, you will always learn from it. The more experiences you attain in life, the more facets and dimensions you will add to your personality. Always live and always learn.
