Introduction

I'm J.J., a sophomore at Duke University designing my own major through Program II around filmmaking, storytelling, creativity and technology.
Jardeis is where that work lives: short films, brand stories and writing about directing. I care less about being seen and more about making something that stays with a person for a day afterwards.
