CREATIVITY

Hello. My name is Austin, and I'm a Community Editor for BuzzFeed. I'm also a firm disbeliever in the phrase, "Jack of all trades; master of none."

I am a multi-faceted creative with focuses on artistic direction, writing, editing, video production, music, and photography.

As a content creator, I understand that stories are built word by word, videos—frame by frame, and music—note by note. From these seemingly simple structures, great works are forged. In all my creative endeavors, I take this approach, never expecting greatness; instead, I work tirelessly to make something truly great. Creating is my passion, and excellence is my goal.
