| What are some names of the books or other media you have created? |
| I create weekly videos for families to use as a tool to help spark learning and discussion during family scripture study time. Children have the amazing capability to learn the principles of the gospel at young ages. If we can simplify the gospel into terms the children can understand and help them apply those principles into their everyday lives they begin building testimonies of their own. |
| What inspired you to become a creator of media? |
| Through much prayer and study, the Lord has been impressing on my mind the usefulness of my talent to simply doctrine and principles in ways that children can understand and apply. I have felt impressed to start making and sharing puppet show videos that focus on one principle of the gospel of Jesus Christ each week, and they align with the Come Follow Me program so that families can use them to facilitate teaching their children the gospel at home. |
| What has been the highlight of your career so far? |
| I love hearing how children are using my videos to learn the gospel. |
| What was the best advice you’ve ever been given in your creative journey? |
| It takes time to build up an audience. |
| What keeps you inspired in your daily creative work? |
| The on-going inspiration through the Holy Ghost prodding me onward and upward. |
| What would you like others to know about you or your creative process? |
| Right now I am doing every part of video production and I am looking for others to help. Trying to be Actor, Editor, Director, Composer, Musician, Playwright, etc. is too much for one person. Anyone who has some talent, time to dedicate, and love of sharing the gospel is welcome to join me in this adventure! |
| In what ways do you feel you have been able to be a voice for good in your creative pursuits? |
| Many children are learning how to apply the scriptures into their lives. I know my children have benefited from this endeavor. |
