  • A videographer working with brands, artists and organizations to tell effective shortform stories.

     

    I aim for cutting-edge production values, quick turnaround times and a smooth process from the planning stages to the final piece.

     

    I am a cinematographer, editor & director (occasionally venturing into photography and text,) often working as a single operator.

     

    Simply put, I like to create authentic stories with exceptional cinematography and taste.
