Six-word memoir: I’m always happier with my mandolin.
Why did you choose to get involved in storytelling?
Inform/change people’s mindsets on topic that normally cause our society to suffer Like fixing stereotypes, and just making the world a better place.
What story are you most proud of?
Project Q is a youth community for LGBTQ youth living in and around Milwaukee. A friend and group member went there, so I wanted to enlighten my school with a short video.
How can youth media change the world?
If our voice is heard, it shows that we can make a change that could impact society more than if an adult did it.
