In My Own Words

I am a 22 year old passion-driven student and content creator from Orange County, California. My passion and love for Jesus, the outdoors and action sports drives me to excel in every aspect of life; work, relationships and my hobbies. Organization skills are essential to my workflow; external drives are exceptionally organized to ensure no file will be lost and can be accessed at a moments notice.

I am constantly striving to bring a fresh perspective to media in the action sports industry.
