I was born in Ventura County, California in 2001. I don’t remember much from before school. I do remember camping with my family. I loved Pokemon. My brother still does. He’s twenty-five. I threw a fit when I couldn’t ride a bike. I learned eventually. My dad’s a cowboy. I was too when I was a kid. Not so much anymore. Soccer was fun, until it wasn’t. I bought my first camera when I was fourteen. I dropped it into a cooler a week later. Rice didn’t fix it. I bought another. Then some more. I liked taking pictures. My friends liked the pictures I took. I got into UCSB for film. Good thing I learned to ride a bike. I changed to Environmental Science before I started. I missed math, so I studied Statistics too. My friend asked me to shoot a film with him. I said yes and quit my job. We shot another film. I made a photo book. I worked on more films. I graduated. I cried. I don’t know for sure what I want to do. I’d like to travel more. I’d also like to make more films. Now I live near Los Angeles, California. I’m twenty-two.
