How would you describe your personal style?

I would describe my personal style as something akin to experimentation. I like to try new techniques and skills in both film and photography. I don't put myself in a box and limit myself.

What is your favorite movie?

My favorite movie has to be Clerks. If you haven't seen it yet I highly recommend it. 

What was the first album you bought?

The first album I ever bought was "Help!" by The Beatles.

What do you like to listen to?

Growing up I listened to lots of Rock and Spanish music at home, but at the risk of sounding corny, I do like to listen to anything and everything. Music is such a vast and endless thing that it does it no justice to just constrict yourself to one or two genres.

Tell us about the first time you picked up a camera? What do you like to (shoot/film)?

My first experience with a camera was when I was about nine years old. My family and I were going on a trip and they gave me a disposable camera to take pictures—and I've been taking pictures ever since. It was around that time that I started experimenting with filming on an old camcorder that my uncle had. All I would do it walk around our house and record whatever was happening that moment and day. When it comes to what I like to capture it varies between both mediums. As far as photography goes, I'm fascinated with capturing life as it's happening—each and every candid moment. When it comes to filming, I'm interested in not only recording anything that I can but also working on scripted work such as skits and short free-form videos.

What or Who inspires you to continue creating content?

Other artists, photographers, content creators are what inspire me to keep creating new and exciting content. It's all about doing and producing what you like and putting it out there. They're what inspire me to push myself to create and produce new content because I want my work to be up to par with the people that drive me.

What is your Favorite emoji?

The "B" emoji—just New York things b.

If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do?

I would buy my parents a house—is that a cliche answer?

Favorite places in the City? 

As much as it may make me sound like a tourist, my favorite park in the city is Washington Square Park; the people you meet and see there can't compare to any other park in the city.

Any future projects or plans?

As far as film goes, I'm currently working on a few scripted shorts and skits; as well as a short film called "What We Carry". It's currently in post production. As for photography, I'm in the process of working on and putting out a few photo-series that capture life in New York City.
