I grew up on the west side of Chicago, off of Central and Division, with my 12 siblings and parents. The environment was bad but my family and I found ways to distract ourselves from the violence: by filming home movies, starting a band, hosting family award shows and brainstorming ideas for movies and tv shows. I owe my drive for creativity to them. I started writing at 8 years old, badly at that, but I've improved my hobby. I began composing piano instrumentals around the same age. My video editing hobby started about 2 years ago, I began diving into that by producing book trailers for writers online and even for myself. I've always wanted to direct or see my works come to life, making edits is the closest I can get to that right now.
