I was born and raised in Southern California. I'm 26 years old and I've been making short films since junior year of high school. Now a junior in college I get better and better everyday. I've only had 4 acting teachers and it's from my college at Columbia College Hollywood and I've achieved a lot. All my films that I direct and write is called a BATES FILM. Double major with directing and writing but I also act in my own stuff as well because I love to stay busy. I act in other peoples films as well because I have and make good relationships with my friends that turn into family. I've made multiple shorts and a few short features but I'm about to step up and start making features in a matter of time I've written a feature and about to finish writing my second one then I'm gonna get to work because this is my passion that I've had my whole life. Everyone is always doing something on my sets because I don't want anyone doing nothing but during production everyone is having fun and where getting work done. Even when I write, direct, and act in the same film crew think I have pressure and it's true. But I let the pressure help me with my performance and to help with everyone else knowing that we'll get it done. But in overall with whatever roll I get, I'm gonna hit it out of the ball park. But when I speak some of my friends think I'm gonna be really successful. Now I can't tell the future but when that moment comes I'm gonna keep my saying "not famous yet," why? Because fame changes people but with me I'm not gonna change who I once was.
