I always try to capture a feeling, the same way the ocean keeps moving, keeps crashing, keeps existing in its own rhythm.
I hope to create one that resonates with others, and I can look back at my own videos, like a nostalgic memory.

Strong Narrative
I have the most enjoyment experimenting with the graphics put on videos as little details, even to just lighten the mood a little or as an added touch. The elements create visual interest and reinforce my nostalgic narrative I am hoping to achieve, making the viewer feel like they're inside the moment, not on the outside.
Design Elements
Every video is a series of choices, the color that sets the mood. Like a song that makes a mundane moment feel like a memory.
I transform everyday footage into narrative experiences, using my own videos as case studies. I want to provide context that there are invisible choices that make a simple documentation into a story through visual storytelling.
My videos start with a title sequence, carefully choreographed moment where music, rhythm, and design come together to tell you exactly what kind of journey you're about to take.
I choose a song that captures a nostalgic, warm, and reflective tone. Then I edit the clips to the beat, letting the music dictate the rhythm. Each cut lands on a note. Each frame breathes with the melody to build off each other.
More recently, in my videos, I have been carrying aff strong sense of narrative where it isn't just perceived through visuals, but also emotionally. Each clip reflects how I feel, what drives me, and the moments that keep me motivated to continue creating. I aim to turn introspection into motion, transforming personal reflection into stories that other can connect to.

i enjoy relaxing, but it's hard not to be overwhelmed with the anxiety of not doing enough.
some days are mundane, but there's always peace in simple days."
