First Blog Post: WRIT 340

I am from Anaheim, California. Coming from an action sports background growing up skateboarding, I found a passion for visual arts and am now pursuing my passion to become an action sports filmmaker for hopefully Red Bull post graduation. I plan on getting there by creating spec ads for the USC Ski and Snowboard Team, developing my network within action sports through social channels, developing my network and social presence, and of course developing my skills through practice, courses, and environment. I am hardworking, selfless, and have the same Latino values like my parents. Unlike my parents, I am an American born citizen and have grown up as a first generation American with many more opportunities that they have provided for me. I have developed my own expectations for myself through deep introspection that I underwent during difficult times in my late teens. Having my health put in jeopardy at a young age really shocked me into understanding what I value in my life and what I want to get out of it. Jocko Willink is a person that I believe lives life with great passion and discipline that has allowed him to get to high heights. I feel a special connection to lions because they are natural leaders and pack (pride) based animals. I am very loyal to people that are within my close circle and will do what is necessary to protect them and assure that they reach success. I remember growing up we had a tree in front of my house and we had to cut it down because it had termites. It was somewhat sad, but the yard looked a lot nicer after that. Sun Sign is a Virgo. Moon Sign is a Pisces, Rising sign is a Libra. And I don’t believe any of those signs have any effect on my actual personality lol.
