"Because that's what the point of life is....to be happy"

 

It all started when...

I bought a book about screenwriting when I was 11 years old and it was so over my head that I got discouraged and didn't finish it. 

Hindsight being 20/20, the next two decades of my life featuring a kind of awesome semi-successful rap career and separate corporate marketing job where I've worked on creating video content and working on TV commercials have all been leading me back to the beginning - film. 

And so here I am now. A first-time filmmaking Puerto Rican kid from Jersey City making things that hopefully resonate with people in a real way.

I am so so proud of my first short film that I wrote/produced/directed/edited being selected to screen at the Golden Door International Film Festival and the Official Latino Short Film Festival.

It screened in New York City this October as part of the Official Latino Short Film Festival and Golden Door International Film Festival - earning nominations for Best Comedy and Best Actor in a Comedy Short.

I recently wrote a piece on Medium about why I think everyone should "make a movie". Click here to give it a read!
