జీవిత చరిత్ర
His interest in filmmaking began in 1992 while watching "The Terror of Mechagodzilla." He started creating home movies using a Magnavox VHS Camcorder.
In 1998, he began exploring the filmmaking process. While filming was enjoyable, he found the editing phase more intriguing. His first narrative short film was a parody of a 007 action hero movie, featuring his father, brother, and young cousins aged 6 to 10. Although the film was never finished, it showed promise for a budding creative. By 2001, he chose to focus on film editing rather than filming, though he remained open to operating the camera. He started editing with Adobe Premiere 6.0, a leading editing tool at the time.
In 2003, he produced his first completed narrative short film, Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart." This project marked his initial experience using dollies, tracks, lighting equipment, and a professional camera—the Canon XL1—instead of a home camcorder. It was also his first time working with Final Cut Pro Studio. The film was well-received within the Battle Ground High School film program in Washington. He graduated from Battle Ground High School in 2005, earning an award for "Excellence in Achievement: Outstanding Film Student."
In 2006, he transferred to Biola University, where he was accepted into the Film, Television, and Radio program.
In 2008, he directed, produced, and edited the narrative short film "No Way Out." Shot with the Panasonic HVX200, color-corrected using Red Giant's Magic Bullet Looks, and edited with Adobe Premiere CS3, the film garnered several awards, including Best Thriller and Best Supporting Actor, and received a nomination for Best Sound Design at the Biola Film Festival. It was also an official selection at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival and the Thirdscreen Film Festival.
He graduated from Biola University in 2009 with a BA in Film, Television, and Radio. Shortly after, he directed and edited another narrative short, "The Cold Truth," which was an official selection at the 2009 Chicago Comedy Film Festival. Additionally, he contributed to the feature film "The Black Dawn" by New Renaissance Pictures, which was sold to NBC, Netflix, and other distributors.
In 2010, he refined the feature film "The Message," starring Erica Leerhsen (Texas Chainsaw Massacre).
In 2011, he joined the independent feature film "5th Street," directed by Alex Meader and produced by Eric Martinez.
Currently, he is working with Rezlab Entertainment and 5th Street Films.
