These are my accomplishments

My accomplishments:

I was a straight A student in high school; I graduated at the top of my class with a 4.0 GPA in 2007. It was one of the most highly regarded public high schools in the country at the time.

I gave excellent performances in various stage plays in high school from 2005-2007. I won awards for my performances in OAP competition. I directed a really great stage adaptation of Steve Martin's Picasso at the Lapin Agile at the end of my senior year.

I got into one of the top 5 film schools in the country (UT Austin film school) in 2007.

I wrote produced and directed really great original short films titled Socks and The Director And His Actor in the autumn semester of 2008 at UT Austin. One of them was almost a carbon copy of a Jean Luc Godard film. I received high praise on them from the class, and they provoked the most discussion.

I wrote really brilliant satirical excellent novels-screenplays titled Solitude Rising and Academic Messiah during 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012. They bore lots of resemblance to Kurt Vonnegut, Philip K Dick, JD Salinger, David Foster Wallace, Joseph Heller, Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson.

In 2016, I returned to UT Austin film school after a brief absence. In spring of 2017, I wrote produced and directed really great short films titled A Sassy Day for Hitch, Marty, and Big Stan, and Jesus Has the Birthday Blues. In autumn of 2017, I wrote produced and directed an excellent short film titled Before the Reception that was the best film of the semester (and it bore a lot of resemblance to Federico Fellini, Roberto Rossellini, Ingmar Bergman, John Cassavetes, and others).

I was on the Dean's List during 2017 and 2018 at UT Austin film school.

I graduated from UT Austin film school on May 18th, 2018.

In 2019 and 2020, I wrote produced and directed an excellent bold original brilliant short post-undergrad film Quack that bore so much resemblance to Orson Welles, Errol Morris, Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen, Jean Luc Godard, Werner Herzog, Robert Altman, Jacques Tati, and others.

On August 18th, 2024, I completed the first draft of the screenplay of my first major full length narrative motion picture, clocking in at 220 pages (roughly equivalent of 3 hours and 40 minutes).

It's 2024, and I'm in the middle of developing 13 major full length narrative motion pictures that I'm writing, producing, and directing.

Those are my accomplishments so far.

I'm an artist.

I just wish the Catholic Church would believe in me.

I just wish the Catholic Church would be supportive of me.
