The goal is to someday be a writer and director of film and television and have previously attended film school at Columbia College Hollywood out in Tarzana, CA. Currently, I am seeking a steady position in which I can take my skills and passions for content creation and apply them to a company or organization who is ready to grow and expand its branding out into the world.
