About Me

ABOUT ME

Moved to Vancouver in 2009 to pursue a path in filmmaking after a realization in Italy on what I thought at the time was my deathbed. I was not born to ride the nine to five.

In 2013 I had another near death experience (I fell asleep at the wheel and flipped my car a few times at 100kms/hr). After that I decided to slow things down a bit and step away from my materialistic life. I moved a 1977 camper van which I lived in for around a year before upgrading to a larger van which I lived in for around 6 months.

I am currently working as an assistant location manager in the Vancouver film industry trying to get to a stage where I can drop out of the eternal battle for dollars and cents, acquire a warehouse and start an art collective with my closest friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Buy the ticket, take the ride

There's only one instant, and it's right now. And it's eternity.
