I started acting in 2018. This gets a bit dark in places, especially in March 2020!

Some of these are accidents of birth, like his poor eyesight and slow trek to blindness, and some are of his own making, like choosing to compete as a scholar-athlete.

Moreover, as humans, all of us are imperfect.

A third seeks true artistic sensuality, and the fourth wants nothing more than the Freudian essentials of success at love and work.
