I have been in the field of Media production for over 6 years working various types of projects which include wedding videos, product promos, sport broadcast, branding videos, and more. I've had one of my 2018 films being an official selection at the Newark International Film Festival & my most recent work being recognized at The University of Texas at Austin.

I love amplifying moments, talents, and architecture with a camera. I'm a videographer who aspires to bring depth to individuals, businesses, and cultures through cinematic storytelling. I believe this look can make any ad/commercial be more engaging and seem less like something most would want to swipe past. I write, color grade, edit, film, and take photos. If there's a look that you're going for, let's chat and bring that idea to life.

I am a storyteller at heart and enjoy filming people who are passionate about a cause, with the purpose to help others.
