I’ve always loved the why. It made me an annoying kid. Sadly, I never fully grew up. 

My curiosity led me to restart my high school’s community TV show and get my J-school diploma at BCIT.


Two years later, armed with the aforementioned curiosity, a camera, and a few friends I’ve convinced to join my wacky quests, I started a YouTube channel to dive into the why.


From wondering why my local Costco is strange to the impacts of local sex work laws and transportation policy, I cover whatever I’m curious about.

I mainly specialize in digital content, but I also do written work, documentaries, and podcasts.
