About Me

I've always loved storytelling in its many forms! As a kid, I would create stories with my toys, draw characters, create comics, and write fiction. These interests manifested into my diverse storytelling skill set in filmmaking, illustration, animation, and graphic design. 

Across each medium and genre, I enjoy working in satire with uncomfortable subjects and presenting an array of characters outside the social norm. I aspire to engage audiences and encourage them to approach any given topic with a new perspective which also ties into my passion for activism and equality.
