Welcome to my userspace. I am Trailblazer101, otherwise known as Trail Blazer or Trail. I am a filmmaker, screenwriter, entrepreneur, and journalist from Minnesota, I am a self-professed storyteller, creative, and film enthusiast, and I am currently studying film and entrepreneurial studies. I am the founder, owner, and editor-in-chief of TheTrailBlazer on Substack, an innovative newsletter and planned magazine covering Hollywood, pop culture, journalism, Wikipedia, and the business behind entertainment and tech, among other topics. My contributions focus on the topics of film (primarily the Marvel Cinematic Universe) and media and technology businesses. I often spend time refactoring references and ensuring the use of reliable sources, copyediting articles, reverting vandalism, participating in redirects for discussion and articles for deletion, and working on and creating redirects and drafts. I am an extended confirmed user, a page mover, a rollback, and a pending changes reviewer, and I am redirect autopatrol listed, I have access to AutoWikiBrowser (AWB) and The Wikipedia Library, and I am a founding member of the Marvel Cinematic Universe task force. I have been fortunate to have received several WikiLove messages in my time here.

I enjoy writing and reading poems, novels, spec scripts, and comic books, and watching films of varied genres, such as science fiction, thriller, mystery, spy, crime, science fantasy, dark fantasy, drama, biographical, and horror. I also enjoy documentaries, banned books, debates, video games, biking, swimming, auto racing, listening to a variety of music, plays, concert performances, orchestras, drinking beverages, the role of journalism in society, the filmmaking process, telecommunications, the stories of Arthurian legend and Greek, Roman, and Egyptian mythology, and reading and analyzing literary texts and their connections to humanities, time, morals, ethics, logical and rational thinking, abductive and deductive reasoning, psychology, and philosophy. I am currently or have studied screenwriting, film editing and post-production, multimedia, web design, marketing, engineering, art and design, and astronomy. I am an avid reader and follower of news from journalists and periodicals pertaining to the entertainment and technology industries. I strive to become a production assistant-turned-film director/film producer/screenwriter and a studio or media executive or work as a journalist, given some refer to me as part of the "sub-paparazzi" for my pursuit in citizen journalism. I am hardworking, diligent, imaginative, and innovative, and I have a reputation for being perceived as "mysterious", strict, stern, "bossy", a "company man", a "subordinate", "twisted", controlling, manipulative, "evil", formal, and sarcastic, but those could change once you get to know me, as I care deep down for others and tend to be a bit overprotective, and I always have the best and genuine intentions at heart with my work, decisions, and actions, despite my reputation often preceding me before one gets to know my true character.

I have previously contributed to several Fandom wikis, having notably served as a bureaucrat and administrator of the LEGO Dimensions Wiki, its sister site the LEGO Dimensions Customs Community, and the content creation community the LMMCU Wiki, and as the former de facto owner and leader of the first and lattermost wikis, as well as a former contributor to the Marvel Cinematic Universe Wiki before I left over its handling of sources, among other wikis. I have had my fair share of losses, disputes, and controversies in my time within these communities and from my work at movie theaters, which has, along with personal endeavors, allowed me to learn and face several lessons in how to work with and handle people, enhanced my beliefs as described above and my communication, strategizing, collaboration, negotiation, dispute resolution, and leadership skills. I am a firm believer that there is always room to meet in the middle with common ground and that an alternative option or way of doing or achieving something exists. After departing from these wiki commitments, I began focusing on writing novels and spec scripts, furthering my research and education into the industries and areas of my interest, and migrated to Wikipedia. I also operate the alternative account Trailblazer102 for testing purposes, after I had originally established it as "DimensionsLord" in February 2017 when I wanted to distance my Wikipedia editing from my Fandom ones, before deciding to repurpose the account. Some of my idols and inspirations include Steven Spielberg, Bob Iger, Sumner Redstone, James Cameron, Christopher Nolan, Denis Villeneuve, Stephen King, Roger Ebert, George Lucas, Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, Benedict Cumberbatch, Stanley Kubrick, Werner Herzog, Aaron Sorkin, Alfred Hitchcock, Charles Dickens, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Edgar Allan Poe, Bram Stoker, Agatha Christie, Robert Zemeckis, David Fincher, Scott Derrickson, M. Night Shyamalan, Ridley Scott, James Gunn, Matt Reeves, Ivan Reitman, Rick Riordan, Neal Schusterman, Tom Hanks, and Morgan Freeman.
