Being raised in a small town with little creative opportunities, I quickly learned to create my own projects in order to grow. I began with photo, photographing friends, and creating sets for each shoot. At the same time, I was delving into the world of screenwriting. I began to write shorts and make them. I taught myself how to edit.
I graduated high school in 2021 having not applied to a single college. I spent three months relentlessly trying to break into the industry with no contacts & no experience. Eventually, I got my in. I was asked to work as an additional PA for 1 day on a FOX show. I started and ended up working full-time.
I was bouncing from set to set. I found myself down many different paths. I worked as a photo assistant in Europe. I supported production in Los Angeles. I worked camera in NC. Each job encouraged growth.
Now, I find myself continuing to further my skills, in every direction possible.
