I’m a filmmaker, game designer, and content creator.

That’s all cool to say, but how did I get here?

I would devour stories wherever I could find them as a kid - didn’t matter if I was getting chills reading Goosebumps, watching the 90’s live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies on VHS, or playing The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on my brother’s Nintendo 64. I loved that sense of adventure and fun.

Then I got my hands on a tool that would allow me to tell my own stories - a Sony DV Camcorder (look up exact model)!

From then on I would gather my friends to make any movie we could (change it to tell any story - frame it as more than just movies). Sometimes we would dress up in our Halloween costumes in the middle of summer and act in our home movies, other times we would bring our action figures to life through stop motion animation and silly voices. Always trying to make ourselves laugh and tell even crazier stories.

My passion for filmmaking, video games, comics, and just plain ol’ fun carried me through my college days. I graduated from Temple University with a Bachelors in Film and Media Arts. I had many student films under my belt by the time I had my diploma in hand, My skill was noted and I even gave my class’ commencement speech. I had learned the basics of making professional work, but life still had much to teach me.

I kept feeling like the stories I was trying to tell just weren’t firing on all cylinders. They lacked a depth that my favorite movies and games had. Life, faith, and hard-earned experience changed that.

Through broken hearts, missed opportunities, and varied seasons of growth, I encountered Christ, and where I had a creative spark, I now found a creative bolt of lightning.

Over the past seven years, my life and work has changed drastically as I’ve built my creative practice.
