About Me

During my high school years, I developed a strong interest in visual storytelling after becoming a producer for our school's news program. This passion for storytelling influenced my career choice, and at the age of 17, I joined the military as a Combat Documentation Specialist, also known as "Combat Camera."
​
​
Despite the demanding nature of the job, I remained passionate about pursuing a similar path and enrolled at Cal State Northridge to earn a degree in Cinema and Television Arts. After graduation, I landed a job as an editor for a local news station. Currently, I work in the entertainment marketing industry and I still feel thrilled about this profession. I am eagerly looking forward to taking on more exciting projects and producing content that engages and inspires viewers.
