Ally Sarras

Ally Sarras was born and raised in Raynham, Massachusetts, and she moved to West Virginia in 2008. She grew up with popular Nintendo series such as Super Mario and Kirby—fostering her passion for gaming. While away from the screen, she spends time with her two adorable dogs: Camo and Tiny Hug. Camo is a mix between an Artois Hound and a bulldog who loves to roughhouse at any given moment. Tiny Hug, although a retired greyhound, runs to Ally at high speeds whenever she gets home from school. Although they are super chaotic, Ally loves them both dearly.

During high school, Ally started recording herself playing games with friends and editing them. This cycle of playing games and then editing them eventually evolved into her passion of video editing. With about 1,000 edited game clips of varying length under her belt, Ally captures funny moments and spruces them up with unique visual or audio effects. After a long day, she rewatches her videos to get a good laugh.

In the near future, Ally aspires to become a freelance photographer and videographer; she hopes to offer others that same joy of reminiscing on positive memories. Contrary to popular trends, Ally does not use artificial intelligence unless she is required to; she finds that people rely too much on it and diminish their critical and creative thinking abilities. Both in her career and personal life, she will advocate for others to use their own voice to create.
