I got my start in the fine arts when I began piano lessons at age 8. Later at 11 years old, I started drawing in a sketchbook. I developed my art and music skills over time and became more interested in media and design. In high school I discovered the power of Photoshop and basic editing software like Final Cut, which I used to make funny skits for my friends. But I finally got the itch to do something bigger when I watched both RWBY (2013), an ongoing anime web series about superpowered girls who fight with complex sci-fi weapons and a kickass soundtrack to boot, as well as Interstellar (2014) by Christopher Nolan. Both RWBY and Interstellar had vastly different, but very unique and colorful attention to music, sound, and design. For the first time, I came out of these viewing experiences asking myself “HOW did they MAKE that? I want to be a part of the creative process for something THAT BIG some day too”.

I found my niche at SCAD when I changed my major to Sound Design. After declaring two Minors in Drawing and Music Composition, I was thoroughly challenged by professors who pushed me to my limits and cared about my growth as an artist. I learned the basics of running my own business while on campus, jumping onto student projects as a fledgling composer and editor who promised to help these student films shine. I fell in love with the post-production process here and I carried that passion into my Master’s program and beyond. What really put my skills to the test in the end was the 2020 Covid lockdown. With nowhere else to go, I took to the online world and sold my services there. Whether it was art commissions, freelancing as a composer, offering my skills as a sound designer for commercials, or even editing for content creators online, I was ready to prove myself. Today, I’ve got 5 years of experience and counting under my belt.
