Hobbies
My passions for creation transfer over to many of the activities I do just for fun. Filmmaking and music are two hobbies of mine that I do obsessively in my free time. I like to combine the passions by making short films with my own piano recordings as the musical score. When I am not making a mini-movie, I'm probably playing football with my friends or catching the Green Bay Packers game on TV!
Filmmaking
Storytelling
My love for film comes from my love for storytelling. Film offers me so millions of ways to create a moving piece directed towards a certain audience. I spent a summer at WHYY headquarters in Philadelphia learning about how to tell a story through film and audio and have used that knowledge to create my own short films today.
Music
Piano
I have been playing the piano for 11+ years now and my love for music has only grown with every year. Though I enjoy and perform the traditional Classical pieces along with selections from the Baroque and Romantic periods, I find it more fun to test my own musical abilities. I challenge myself to listen to songs and play them on the first try by ear. It is a fun and useful exercise that spices up traditional piano playing.
Sports
Inspiration
I love watching my favorite sports teams on TV. Playoff NFL football is incredible and there's nothing like seeing LeBron James dunk the ball with ferocity. I love playing both football and basketball in my free time recreationally and make an effort to spend some time outside everyday. The athletes are more than sportsmen, they are inspirations and examples of determination to a cause. I imitate their habits in my own endeavors to reach a similar level of success.
