I chose Mr. Schwalm as my mentor because he has supported me and created abundant opportunities for me throughout my filmmaking journey. Mr. Schwalm has always believed in me more than I can believe in myself. He is open minded towards my ideas, and he’s more than willing to help me with challenging projects. This year, Mr. Schwalm encouraged me throughout my college decision process, and he has constantly been a supportive figure in my life. Mr. Schwalm is a strong mentor; I will forever be grateful for him.
