street and sport video/photo content

Whether I’m capturing video pitchside, editing a student film, or coding for the first time, I’m always enthusiastic and self-sufficient. Being able to play soccer since I was five has greatly influenced how I use motion creatively and has definitely had a positive impact on how I operate in a competitive field - individually or (especially) in a creative team.

I’m a 2020 graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill with majors in Communications (Media Studies & Production) and Asian Studies (the Middle East and Koreas) with a minor in Writing for the Screen and Stage. I’ve additionally completed a Design Software Intensive through UCLA extension and a six-month Full Stack Flex Coding Bootcamp through the UNC-CH Friday Center.:)
