More About Me
I love art. Whether it is film, video, or photos, I love viewing and being part of it in any way. I found my passion for film in a high school club called Radio Club that held a coffee house show three times a year. During those shows there was a short film that was created by fellow students and I immediately knew I wanted to be a part of creating it. A year later I got myself involved in creating those short films. I then went on to SUNY New Paltz to study Digital Media Production as my major and Journalism as my minor.
