I recently graduated from University of California, San Diego with a B.A. in psychology. I’m currently spending a year traveling before returning to school. I’m very interested in film, film production, photography, and psychology.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a very diverse range of music that i listen to, however the genres i find myself listening to the most are classic rock (60s/70s) and indie rock. As someone who is very interested in film, I tend to watch anything that is recommended to me. My favorite film currently is Midsommar (2019) by Ari Aster. Some of my favorite books include: Dreams by Carl Jung, A Really Good Day by Ayelet Waldman, and LSD, My Problem Child by Albert Hoffman.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did Kung Fu for 12 years.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m always happy to teach the basics of photography and film editing. For photography, I use a Canon DSLR, photoshop, and Lightroom. For film editing, I use Adobe Premiere Pro. I’m more than willing to teach any of these to those who are interested.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can help clean around the house. I’m not the best cook but i’m willing to help with that as well. I’m always looking to have conversations about psychology and film.
