I was born in Spain…


 to a journalist father and an airline pilot mother. My family inspired my interest in stories from around the world, which I first expressed through art. This skill earned me an acceptance to the Design and Architecture Senior High where I kindled my love for other visual mediums such as animation, VFX, and filmmaking. I graduated from the Florida State University College of Motion Picture Arts, specializing in Visual Effects, Production Design, and fattening up my screenwriting portfolio. My thirst for diverse stories has grown into a love for literature and history that manifests in every aspect of my work.
