Writer · actor · filmmaker
I'm a first-gen college student from a small town where I often felt like a black sheep. Navigating my gay identity in a place where diversity was scarce led me to live vicariously through the multi-faceted characters I created. I then went to school to amplify those underrepresented voices, tell queer stories, challenge stereotypes, and redefine the narrative of love, identity, and belonging.
I will inspire change in the way stories are told.
the vision
Provoking thought and inspiring change, especially when representing the LGBTQ+ community authentically, is my greatest focus. My trademark tone is dark, understanding the nuances of the human experience — with all their complexities, emotions, and struggles. I seek the unvarnished real and raw truth of life in my stories.
