Relevant Coursework
My time as an undergraduate has allowed me to attain a breadth of experience in film, television, writing, audio and video production. I began at the Los Medanos College Recording Arts department with a goal to pursue music production and audio engineering, which soon transitioned to a focus on audio production for visual media. As a student of film at SF State, I've had the opportunity to expand into screenwriting, film production and sound design.
