Fun Fact

Just by looking at me you can probably tell that I cannot dunk a basketball. (On a regulation rim that is) However, fun fact is I am training, and I believe in 6 months I'll be doing windmills. Or at the very least getting the ball just over the rim enough to win some bets.

Passion

I am passionate about a lot of things, mathematics, film-making, writing, etc, but what I am currently very passionate about is self-improvement. I am in the life-long process of improving myself inside and out to try to become a more motivated, caring, self-less, fun-loving, and dedicated person.

Videos
    This is a fun video I made in a day in half with my Dad to send to my family before Thanksgiving. We have a basketball rivalry every year and this video is just elaborate trash talk.
    This video was made for a sketch comedy show I directed, wrote, and acted in. The video was made from my idea, also written by me, and I have a small acting role. The video was filmed and edited by the great Nick Brown.
    This video was made by Virginia Tech Filmmakers Club, an organization I am proud to be a part of. This is another one of my babies. This video came from my idea, and I also wrote, and had a small acting part.
