    Videos

    +

From quirky one-minute shorts + demonstrating what not to do to 1-hour long technical deep dives showing my versitility as a + storyteller, and educator. I wrote and directed the shorts that I don't appear in. I'm most proud + of my appearance on the Alexa Dojo, where + I was able to use my Japanese skills. +
