I have always been a storyteller. Flashback to 6th grade, I’m equipped with a camcorder I received for Christmas recording home videos of my family and friends. Throughout the years that followed I was constantly documenting the lives of those closest to me, without any conscious awareness that I was doing so. I truly see every moment as a possible story, and live my life to gather as many stories as possible. In recent years, I took a more direct approach and have managed to make a business out of it.
