Software Engineer, Filmmaker
Summary
I love creating something that makes people think or feel or do; something that lasts longer than the thing itself. As a result I have spent a lot of time writing and making movies hoping that one day I can actually get paid money to continue to do that.
I am pursuing a degree in mathematics and philosophy, but am adept with computers and have a background in programming (in Python and Java). I find that math and philosophy are the most rigorous approaches to thought and ideas which can and will shape my life and hopefully, by virtue of extension, others.
