I am Native American and born and raised in Oklahoma. I have been working in the film industry for almost three years now. My shorts films are usually about inner-personal struggle and overcoming them, even if it does take time. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

I have an award-winning short film called "Chipisa'La'Cho" and appeared on the hit Hulu/FX tv series "Reservation Dogs" as Young Fixico.

In future projects, I want to make episodic adventures that are similar to the like of The Last Airbender and Stranger Things.

In my free time I enjoy playing basketball and spending time with my friends and family.

I also LOVE eating food.

Except shellfish. We don't talk anymore.
