lil’ about me
i am a highly motivated, driven, skilled, and curious creative thinker, looking to apply 100% of my experience, skillset, and network to endeavours that resonate with my ethos. i aim to output impactful efforts that initiate or exercise positive change.
i’m deeply curious about the engineering behind all available art mediums. as a highly inquisitive (and easily bored) human, i’m always experimenting with various art forms and skillsets. i believe in being well-versed in as many things as possible, and by doing so, i not only fully engage with the medium i’m currently exploring — i also engage with the creative process itself, which can be applied horizontally across the full spectrum of art forms.
i believe my greatest strength is my curiosity, and my ability to play — which, in turn, is how i exercise the creative process at will.
“the very essence of playfulness is an openness to anything that may happen. the feeling that whatever happens, it’s ok. so you cannot be playful if you’re frightened that moving in some direction will be ‘wrong’ — something you ‘shouldn’t have done.’
well, you’re either free to play, or you’re not.”
– john cleese
i am the son of an engineer and a teacher, and the greatest thing i’ve learned from them is that learning never ceases. by maintaining a perpetual state of absorption, you never stagnate.
i received my bachelor of fine arts in acting for film from the new york film academy (graduated in 2018), where i learned — hands-on — all aspects of filmmaking: from production, screenwriting, and acting to cinematography, and even the more minute details like copyright law and networking in the arts industry.
since then, i’ve expanded my pursuit of the arts in all directions — and you can see my skillsets across this site.
the role of the artist has traditionally been one of critique, contextualization, and reflection of the world around them. as an artist who actively engages with the public consciousness, i seek out projects that can incite positive change — in the world, and in the people living in it.
