Video // Photo // Editing // Writing // Production
I enjoy capturing the world and telling stories through visual mediums.
Always trying to make people laugh or smile through my work, and looking for new ways to relate to others by exploring what we have in common.
When I'm not doing video work I enjoy watching movies, TV shows, anime, and just about every form of digital media. I love video games, always find time to read, and am currently learning digital model making on the side. I enjoy spending time with friends, family, and my cat.
One day I'd like to tell stories or craft experiences of my own!

During my time at school I worked on student films in every capacity - writing, producing, filming, and editing my own and others' films. This was where I really fell in love with the experience of filmmaking.

During my last semester of school I interned at a start-up TV company, editing YouTube content into TV timeslot blocks. This taught me skills in how to repurpose existing content while keeping the story within it cohesive.
