I'm a director, cinematographer, designer, photographer, but basically when you sum it all up: I'm a professional multi-media creator.
I love to create. What started as a love for art & drawing developed into a taste for design. And what started as a love of acting & theatre turned into an ambition for directing and producing short films, music videos and the like. For me, combining all of those elements together meant discovering one of my biggest passions - being behind the camera. Putting all of those creative elements together to create films that are authentic and compelling for an audience has become what inspires & challenges my creativity the most.
So… here’s a brief introduction of who I am & what I do: I grew up a Midwesterner who happily ran away from the bitter Chicago winters and made my escape to sunny California to pursue my dreams of working in the entertainment industry. I graduated from Chapman's Dodge College of Film and Media Arts in 2018, and I quickly made into the industry through the live show and award show circuit, such as the Emmys, Golden Globes, Academy Awards and Grammys, in a variety of roles and departments, most notably: camera, art, production and talent.
When it comes to my skillset, I'm a jack-of-all-trades when it comes to anything visual or creative. Whether it’s in an office during pre-production or on set, I'm comfortable in a variety of positions, from director to camera operator/director of photography to production coordinator to script supervisor and much more. In post-production, I excel in editing, graphics, and coloring. During a photoshoot, I take pride in making my clients feel confident and happy with their end-product photos and achieving their desired aesthetic. Outside the realm of film & photography, I'm also a seasoned artist and graphic designer, specializing in creative problem solving and modern rebranding, from logos to T-shirts to menus to digital drawings and other art.
Evoking an emotion, creating and cultivating mood, and finding creative solutions for film, photography and design projects is what I do. If you're in need of anything creative, from production to videos to photoshop, or any other creative feat you can think up, look no further.
