My story.

It all began with a mountain bikING accident. i was unable to partake in activities, so i turned to film. it allowed me to create, to EXPRESS, and to SHARE. as i developed and got deeper into it, I made a film about the biking community, the very activity which injured Me. i used my media to spread messages about climate change. I made a video for a community food bank. along the way, i made many films for many different reasons and projects, earning VARIOUS awards for my media along the way.
