Hi, I'm Axios
You might know me as a videographer, an improv facilitator, a life coach, a vlogger, a dude with strange hair...
But one thing you might not know is that just five years ago I risked everything to follow my heART. This was a major shift for me as I dropped out of medical school, moved across the country, and began a creative career --- from scratch. Through this wild, scary, exciting, joyous, and humbling adventure, my heART has shown me a few truly important things about myself and the world at large... |
My heART has shown me that...
we are who we've been looking for
The world is not going to change from just one person,
just one idea, just one solution, just one invention, or just one movement... It's going to change through many passionate people, many brilliant ideas, many empowering solutions, many unique inventions, and many transformative movements. We can invest all of our time and energy hoping that our politicians, world leaders, and/or governments will change things for us... Or we can take that time and energy and turn it back on ourselves through the realization that we are all already fully qualified, completely capable, and absolutely worthy of being the change we wish to see in this world. |
I believe in the power of Propinquity
Propinquity is the scientifically researched theory that the closer we are in proximity to each other, the more likely it is that new relationships and connections will form.
When open-minded people come together in close proximity within a space intended for connection, creativity, authenticity, and joy - amazing things are possible. My intention is to create powerful collaborative spaces that catalyze a world of new possibilities. Places where people, ideas, solutions, inventions, and movements happen as the result of an intentional propinquity. I believe that we already have all the answers - they're just hidden inside of us. We don't need to be told anything... ...what we need is to be seen, to be felt, and to be heard! |
My HeART's
Collaborative VISION My heart desires to create leading-edge, collaborative
safe spaces designed to help people find connection, authenticity, and joy within themselves and others. I will do this through advancing my education in facilitation, hosting weekly workshops, retreats, online groups and events, experimenting with innovative approaches, and continuously implementing the ones that work. |
Where My HeART Has Been...
Over the past three years I have led and organized over 200 free community improv classes, workshops, and events in Austin.
I've even led a workshop in Gatesville prison for incarcerated women as part of their Sex Offender Treatment Program. I had no formal training when I first began facilitating improv classes and events - just a desire to live joy-fully! |
My heART has also shown me that...
we only know what we know
The perspectives, ideas, cultures, art, and philosophy that exists within our lives are often the things that have the most prominent influence on our thoughts, our feelings, and most evidently - our actions.
In this day and age, the public eye is exposed to all sorts of perspectives, ideas and information... The typical content is often cheap and dirty (BUY ME), extensive but costs 100 grand (EDUCATE ME), or just straight up emotionally provocative (DISTRACT ME). There are so many amazing people, perspectives, and ideas available to us that can and will significantly enhance our lives, educate us at a fair price, and help us to grow... yet they often go unseen, unfelt, and unheard. Not because they are without a unique identity, beautiful presence, or an inspiring voice, but because they are often drowned out by those who day trade attention. |
My Solution? Useful Eyes
I want to create awesome content that exposes people, places, ideas, and perspectives that would otherwise go unseen.
This takes time. It requires immersion. A willingness to observe and dive deep into an experience, with a radically curious approach, and a strong desire to understand. My strength has always been in seeing the potential, power, and beauty in others. I want to become a useful eye for humanity. One that can see and convey the things that are powerful, yet subtle and easy to miss. |
My HeART's Creative VISION
I'm ready to level up my production value to
create legitimately awesome, high quality content that is irresistibly engaging, entertaining, informative, educational and inspiring. I will do this through capturing the beauty of the world: inspiring people, gorgeous places, empowering perspectives and enlightening experiences. I want to bring attention to the things in life that need to be seen, felt, and heard! |
Where My HeART Has Been...
Over a 5 year period I've created over 300 educational, comedic, and inspirational shows, vlogs, and videos via
personal social media platforms. As a freelance professional, I've created a myriad of video content for local startups, entrepreneurs, & organizations. I did it all with a YouTube education, a $500 camera, and passion to create. |
My current equipment is now well over four years old and I'm ready to significantly improve my production abilities.
As marketing tools, this equipment will help me to promote important workshops, retreats, courses, and events. It will help set the tone for the value I seek to bring to the collaborative spaces I host and facilitate. Technically speaking, this equipment will allow me to film in more diverse settings, solve technical issues, speed up my production process, produce more content, and significantly improve my craft. Ultimately, these tools will dramatically help me to open new doors and continue on my heART's journey! |
