About me

From Ann Arbor, Michigan. Born and Raised.

Born and raised as an Asian American in Ann Arbor, Michigan; my perspective to filmmaking has been influenced by an array of both my Asian heritage and my Midwestern upbringing. My passion for films has always stayed constant, but my filmmaking jumped off at film club at my high school. I would go on to direct my first short film; a Star Wars fan film, Kindred, with a few of my film club buddies.

In my years at the University of Michigan, I’ve worked on countless student films and helped revitalize the WOLV-TV film club (Film, Television and Media department-sponsored), directing and producing for two shows. Even created, produced, talent-scouted and directed my own show based off YouTube giants Jubilee and Cut (WOLV-TV Action!) watched by thousands of students. During my studies, I’ve worked on every aspect of the filmmaking process from pre- to post-production; screenwriting, producing, audio mixing and mastering as well as extensive experience with Adobe Creative Suite (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.). On set, I’ve had extensive experience with camera operation, sound recording, lighting/gaffing, directing and producing, and all other aspects of production. With my connections at WOLV-TV I was able to participate in workshops and helped film interviews with industry legends like Mark Cendrowski (Director of Big-Bang Theory), George Takei, Elia Lyssy, and more.

After graduating from the University of Michigan in 2024 with a Bachelors in Film, Television and Media; I’ve also worked over 14 months at KIP America as a Multimedia Editor and Videographer. While working here, I was in charge of editing over 90% of all marketing videos, and even taught myself how to 3D model and animate using Blender. Many of my animations have made it to landing pages on our company website, and the marketing videos I helped direct/produce increased social media engagement and brought excitement to people within and outside our organization. Currently looking for Film Production roles in the Portland, Oregon area as I will be making a big move to Vancouver, Washington soon!
