I have a B.A. in philosophy from Brigham Young University. I served as a professor's assistant to Alexander James, who holds a B.A. and Ph.D. in Philosophy from both Johns Hopkins University and The University of Chicago respectively. I emphasized my work in Wittgenstein and Hegel combining the latter with analytic philosophy under the guidance of Alexander James.

I am an Afghanistan Army Veteran, with a background in administration and intelligence. I’m fluent in Dutch and conversational in German, and Portuguese.

I have two awesome children. Film has always been a passion of mine, but has increasingly become a more involved love affair over the last few years.
