about me
I enjoy working on films that focus on adventure expeditions to remote, exotic corners of the earth and I'm drawn to capturing authentic content that tells the tale of the human spirit.
I specialize in capturing storytelling elements. From shooting visuals surrounding a scene, to placing and hiding microphones, I have the intuition to be ready for pivotal moments. My goal is to make viewers feel like they are there and to ensure editors they have everything they need for success.
I am also passionate about working on projects that inspire viewers to make the world a better place.
WORK HISTORY

One of the highlights of my career was the opportunity to be the second unit director of photography on HBO and TGR's "Lindsey Vonn: The Final Season."
