CURRENT MISSION

Wanna go wakeboarding/swimming/hiking/biking/skydiving/volleyballing/beach tennising/explore abandoned buildings/fuck shit up/ not sit around all day/ not be a tourist? Then hit me up and lets create!

ABOUT ME

In short, I'm a renaissance man; I'm a jack of all trades and know a lot of somewhat useful facts. I'm always absorbing new information and love to learn something new from a stranger. I'm extremely passionate about filmmaking. I have traveled to 30+ countries since my childhood. I just moved to Aruba to explore a new job opportunity. I love being on creative highs. I tend to motivate others around me. I'm enthusiastic, sarcastic, a little crazy, very logical, yet laid back.

Been doing a lot of wheatpasting (form of graffiti) and night photography lately. Just creating artwork to keep myself sane.

Here are some fun facts:

- Traveled to a small volcanic island off the coast of South Korea to shoot a documentary about a fleeting culture of free-diving women ("Haenyeo"). This film served as my senior thesis at Drexel University. www.imdb.com/title/tt3103440/

- Visited the most dangerous central prison in Ecuador to deliver medicine, kitchen equipment, and aid (my father has been organizing his own trips like this for years - thinking about shooting a documentary about him in 2015)

- Traveled to well over 30 countries since I was little
- Move to Aruba in August 2013
- Went to school for film (passion > $$$)
- Climbed the Great Wall of China
- Visited the Taj Mahal
- Dove 200 feet beneath the sea
- Slid through the salt mines of Salzburg, Austria
- Skydove
- Survived a shark attack (caused by my stupidity)
- My parents own a Dairy Queen (ice cream store)
- Biggest Pet Peeves: Forced burps & Egos (prevent learning)

I'll continue to add fun facts in the near future.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop exploring. Never stop creating.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

In April 2013, I traveled to a small volcanic island (Jeju) off the coast of South Korea. I shot a documentary about the "Haenyeo," a fleeting matriarchal society of the free-diving women. This film served as my senior thesis at Drexel University. www.imdb.com/title/tt3103440/

The film has recently been submitted to 35 festivals around the world. In 2014, I'll have an idea of where it will be premiering!

Unfortunately, the film is not available online, but I can show you on my laptop if we meet in person. Just remind me! I'm always looking for constructive criticism.
