    Hello everyone!

    It does not matter if it is from your personal life, in the workplace, or elsewhere. We all have our own unique personality and state of mind. To get the conversation started, allow me to share my own unique "edge."

    Due to my profound deafness since diagnosed at the age of 2, I relied everything around me by my sight. Growing up watching a lot of movies sparked an intense interest in moving images. As I gotten older, I indulged myself into photography and still life drawing before I dove full force into film making. I try to interpret my thoughts based on how I see things on a slightly altered note. Rather, it is a subtle effect from an actor's performance, a camera angle that fully demonstrate what I want the audience to look, or a color grading to give some pop effect on imagery I photographed.

    Ever since returning home to St. Louis from Los Angeles with master degree in film making and a long list of film gigs I had participated in my belt, I take my experience and skills into the workplace with that little visual edge I offer.

    What kind of unique edge do you have?
