CURRENT MISSION

To make movies that could help change peoples' lives for the better & to travel the world.

ABOUT ME

Filmmaker. Backpacker. Bookaholic. Perpetual Learner. Avid Thinker. Daydreamer. Self-proclaimed Introvert. Procrastinator.

PHILOSOPHY

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
