I’m Zane, an artist working at the intersection of media and marketing, based in Los Angeles.

I’m a student at the USC School of Cinematic Arts, majoring in Media Arts and Practice.

I started drawing at a young age. My parents pushed STEM and I did that too, but art was the thing that never needed convincing. At fifteen I stopped drawing for myself and started building for other people, working as a creative strategist for YouTube channels with over 400,000 subscribers.

In 2024 a friend and I cofounded Sun Society, putting the most ambitious faceless creators, editors, designers, and writers we could find in one room to build on top of each other. Everyone was world class at one thing. Mine was strategy, so I handled visual branding and content strategy. By the end, over half the members had a video pass a million views and two had quit their jobs to make content full time. I closed it in 2025.

I want to keep making media that reaches people at scale, putting the audience experience before the art itself.
