About

I’ve gained hands-on experience in behind-the-scenes and live production through community college coursework, where I developed a strong foundation in film and media production. I’m currently an undergraduate at the University of California, Riverside majoring in Media and Cultural Studies and minoring in Marketing. I’m passionate about pursuing a career in public relations, social media marketing, and digital content creation. I’m interested in industries such as influencer and celebrity relations, sports business, concert production, fashion, gaming, and online platforms like YouTube. Let's connect and make meaningful connections in the media and entertainment world! Outside of work and studies, I enjoy playing badminton, capturing moments through digital photography, exploring new cuisines with loved ones, and attending concerts
