Filmmaker & Author
I use my voice to make a difference in worldly issues through speaking, writing, filmmaking, and experimental theater.
I write and share stories. Sometimes I am working on making films. I also do speaking events.
Here's the first step for everyone
Happiness is one out of a gazillion emotions, but for some reason we rank it high on the charts to obtain. Some of the most incredible, life-changing moments in my life came from sadness and confusion. Don't hold your life by the expectations you see in magazines. If you are truly seeking happiness, the closest you can get to it comes from taking unpaved paths to your truth. I would rather be free every day, than happy, just sometimes.
