Born on L.I. and currently making a mark in Connecticut, I am an aspiring creator of visual media. I graduated from the University of Connecticut in 2020 (amidst the pandemic), majoring in both Communications and Psychology and currently working full-time as a Communications Specialist. My most recent venture is beginning my Master’s Program in Interactive Media and Communications at Quinnipiac University.
My passion for videography and social media has led me to a path of creating professional content for over 8 years now and to be honest….I still love it!
Ever since I was a kid, I would constantly grab my dad’s camcorder and film everything around me. I always had a knack for telling stories, and now filmmaking has given me the opportunity to tell not just my story, but other stories as well. Over the years I have had time to work on my craft, my films always start with a purpose and a goal in mind. I work meticulously, planning my content so I can send the best message to my audience as well as entertain them at the same time.
A couple more personal interests and hobbies of mine: listening to K-pop and audiobooks, running, watching the New York Knicks, trying my best to catch up to One Piece, and taking care of my pets, two adopted elderly cats (Hamtaro + Brago).
