About Me

Filmmaker. Recent graduate from SUNY Purchase who aspires for a career as a full-time video editor. I'm very creative in my work, and love talking and sharing conversations about art.

Outdoorsman. Grown up in the Hudson Valley, having a deep connection to the Hudson River through kayaking, and an appreciation of the woods through hiking.

Animal enthusiast. Have experience owning dogs, hamsters, snakes, fish, birds, bearded dragons, and leopard geckos.

You'll often find me in fits of singing/referencing songs or show-tunes and whistling.

A genuine interest and care of other people and the world around me. Empathy is a key aspect of my personality.
