I (respectfully) OBLITERATE every young Catholic's excuses for not being a leader in 2026

Описание: I'm Áindriú

I have always been Catholic
As a child I wanted to become a 3D animator but I lacked the discipline to teach myself and I did not know anyone successful Catholic creatives in the film industry

Without a clear path to my dream profession and struggling with an [C]orn addiction I searched for meaning and a way to become the man I was made to be.

In 2020 I joined the Marine Corps.
In 2022 I broke free from addiction and graduated from the Defense Language Institute as a Korean Linguist.
In 2024 I married the most amazing woman I know.
In 2025 My my enlistment ended, I became a tektōn, and my next mission began.

Along with learning animation, I have teamed up with other creative Catholics to spread knowledge of our unique vocation to become warriors for Christ in our culture through personal excellence and works that glorify the good, the true, and the beautiful. We call ourselves tektōns.
