Step into the Story

I’m excited to share that I’ve started a fundraiser for my very first short film, and I would be incredibly grateful for your support. This project is a deeply personal one—it’s a story I wrote, will be producing, and am also starring in. But it’s not just about me—this film marks the debut of my dear friend as a director, and it’s also a chance to bring my beloved acting teacher back to the stage where he truly belongs.

The inspiration for this film comes from a very real experience I went through: an anger attack. At the time, I had no idea what was happening to me, but when I learned about it and why it occurred, the idea of turning this experience into a story that could help others never left me. I began researching "blind rage" attacks and learned that many people go through similar struggles—yet so often, we don’t know how to understand or manage these intense emotions. My goal with this film is to raise awareness and show that when moments of uncontrollable anger strike, we can take control and make a choice about how to respond.

This project is more than just a film—it's about sharing something real and meaningful. Every dollar you contribute will bring us closer to telling this story with the authenticity it deserves. Even a small contribution makes a difference. And any extra funds will be donated to a nonprofit dedicated to fighting animal cruelty—a cause that’s deeply personal to me, as my dog Thingy has saved my life in ways words can’t express.

I believe this film can make a real impact, and I would be so grateful for your support. Thank you for helping bring this project to life!
