Whether it&#8217;s your favorite restaurant, park or street, we all notice and experience the world around us based on where we live. I live in L.A. and can&#8217;t stop noticing sharp contradictions of this huge metropolitan area, with its glitz and glamour and almost forgotten, but yet vibrant amazing neighborhoods. 
This is L.A. through my eyes.

I&#8217;m so far out that they call me Mars.
I&#8217;m just a hard working kid from Santa Ana looking to express myself through film. I love creating characters and telling their stories. I think happiness is a sad song. Yeah, I can be a bit emo at times. I hate High Fructose Corn Syrup; it&#8217;s bad for you. I can get political, and I&#8217;m very passionate on my convictions. I need to travel a few times a year to keep my head cool, and I don&#8217;t look back much as a rule.
