I am an aspiring filmmaker and recent graduate of Fairfield University’s “Film Television and Media Arts” department, currently living in Connecticut. I’ve been doing film and digital video production work at a student level since about 2014. Over the years, I’ve gained experience in multiple aspects of the filmmaking process, helped out on a multitude of productions (in various roles), and have earned both an Associates degree in “Communications”, and a Bachelor’s degree in “Film Television and Media Arts” (from Middlesex Community College and Fairfield University respectively).At the latter, I completed my student Capstone film “Wail of the Manchild” (which I wrote, directed, edited, and acted in) between October 2020 and May 2021. Not only was this film accepted into-and screened during-the Fairfield University end of year film festival (known as "Cinefest") during the spring of 2021, but it ultimately won said festival’s award for best editing as recommended by an outside panel of judges.
