From College Expulsion...Now A Successful Filmmaker
No I didn't go to Film school but yes I did get kick out of the college of engineering at the univeristy of Missouri- Columbia, no I didn't know I wanted to do filmmaking, yes It was predestined.
Here's how I became a filmmaker Storytime pt. 1. College Explusion to Succesful Filmmaker
I never know that I would ever be a filmmaker. Some people grow up knowing that's what they always wanted to do, to make movies, other's grabbed a camera at a young age. Honestly it was just in my purpose for me to find this craft. I always had a natural hack and God redirected my path so that I could be in front of you all today! I went through a lot to get here so hopefully my store resonates, inspires and motivates you all to keep going.
and honestly I have NO regrets!!!
Make sure you are suscribed because part 2 will be coming very soon!
Check out some of the ambitions work I did in College when I HAD NO IDEA what I was doing! lmbo!

I'm trying to get my small business and creative pursuits off the ground which has been a very intimidating experience (not to mention the added financial insecurity).

    It's so dope hearing your background and story. Especially the part where you talk about how growing up you didn't even know these career paths were an option, because you didn't see it. This is why representation is so important. I almost went down the same route, but ended up doing the opposite! I had a few friends that decided to major in Computer Science and it sounded like the curriculum was pretty dated compared to the stuff I was already informally teaching myself through books + the internet, so I pursued my creative interests in college and my tech interests in my free time. Fast forward and I ended up writing code full time and doing photo/video as a hobby. In the end it all worked out because my day job affords me the financial stability to pursue my creative endeavors. Looking forward to the next story time!
