Born and raised in the vibrant city of Inglewood, California, Allen's creative journey began with a dual passion for visual storytelling and competitive football. As a teenager, he discovered his talent for editing by ingeniously connecting two VCRs and a PlayStation to create highlight tapes for his teammates. This innovative approach not only showcased his technical skills but also demonstrated his ability to think outside the box.
After completing high school, Allen's impressive football skills earned him a coveted scholarship to attend Brigham Young University (BYU) and play for the school's esteemed football team. During his junior year, he decided to leave BYU and pursue his football dreams by signing with the Cincinnati Bengals. However, his time with the Bengals was short-lived, as he was cut prior to the start of the season.
Despite this setback, Allen refused to let his passion for storytelling fade. He returned to his roots, slowly building his film production company, InglewoodFilms, into a thriving enterprise. With his unique blend of creativity, technical expertise, and determination, Allen has established himself as a force to be reckoned with in the world of film production.
