About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to live my life like a movie I'd want to watch. Exploring the highs and lows, the insane and mundane.

ABOUT ME

I'm 27 years old, born and raised in Long Beach, CA and currently reside in Los Angeles. I have no hobbies, only passions. I live to create. Anything from films to music to moments. I'm a jack of all trades.

I love getting lost in the beauty of nature. I've always lived near the ocean and have been a surfer (in the ocean) for 11 years now. I also practice yoga.

I've been to Guatemala, Belize, Costa Rica, Mexico, Japan, Jamaica, and hopefully more to come.

Overall, I'm a chill person who likes to be around other chill, open-minded, creative people.

PHILOSOPHY

I couldn't tell whether there's a heaven or a hell, but I can tell you that this moment exists now and it's all we know, and all that we can control so I try to make the most of it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went to Joshua Tree with some of my closest friends and shared the beauty of desert desolation. Hearing only your breath and footsteps, watching the sun set, and seeing every star in the sky burning bright like the bon fire we encircled.
