Hey there! I’m a bit of a jack-of-all-trades. I love to read and write, with a particular fondness for sci-fi, memoirs, and fantasy. I’m also a dancer, a collector of books, and have a knack for memorizing things (though I’ve lost my mind a time or two!). Oh, and I’m a pink alien at heart with a healthy dose of optimism.
While small talk isn't my strong suit, I’m a friendly soul and these days, I’ve even got an ordination certificate from Dudeism!
When it comes to writing, I focus on the world around me, and my fiction and fantasy shorts have had me thinking about bending reality. I once produced, directed, and wrote over 30 short films in just a few weeks—because why not?
Totalitarianism is a political system where the state strives to control all aspects of people's public and private life through mass surveillance, restriction of speech, state controlled media, and terrorism. This is what the corporate press and social media channels have become in America today.
