PROFILE
Born in Memphis and raised in
Nashville, I moved to Chicago for
school at DePaul University. I've
been fascinated with film since I
was a young tot and started
writing around the age of 12. I'm
currently working on getting my
projects filmed while focusing on
writing. Keep an eye out for all
that and more on my showreel!
