    Film and Multimedia Communication student at Olivet Nazarene University. I like to make up stories and write them out, and even try to start them into projects, one of them currently being a graphic novel webcomic series that is slowly progressing, and I'm managing a team of artists and acting as the writer and creator of it. I like movies and try to watch them whenever I can and pay attention to detail, since I aspire to join into the film industry. My top 3 movies of all time would be the Dark Knight Rises, Avatar, and Small Soldiers. I also like to play video games, though I need to be spending more time watching movies and focusing on writing rather than just playing them since they are just a hobby.
