When I was a toddler my parents couldn't find me a babysitter, so they did what any responsible guardians would've done... they brought me to my first Saturday matinee... Tim Burton's Beetlejuice. That first encounter with movie magic exploded into a lifelong passion that had taken me from acting to art direction to producing. I even gave music a shot as a singer-songwriter. But that hectic vagabond existence became hard to sustain. I needed to refine my focus. After soul searching and strategizing my next step in a new direction, I came to the conclusion that I didn't want to work on one element of filmmaking. I wanted to work on them all, but that didn't seem possible... until I discovered the joy of editing. Since that time, I've earned my B.F.A. at the Academy of Art University where I majored in editing, while simultaneously starting ScreenDrifter Productions -- my freelance post production company. ​ Being an editor has been the most rewarding avenue I've walked down in my creative journey and I'm excited for whatever future collaborations are on the horizon.

As an award-winning filmmaker with 20 years of experience across documentary, journalism, fiction, and installation art, I’ve honed the ability to adapt to any situation. From leading teams on high-pressure shoots and broadcast deadlines, to filming solo in remote locations, I’m energized by complex and demanding projects. I've been fortunate enough to work with HBO, National Geographic Films, BBC, Island Records, Warner Records, MoMA, MOCA Los Angeles, Chainlink Labs, and The United Nations Education Programme. I consider myself to be detail focused, professional and deeply creative.

From shooting atop 350-ft tall wind turbines to inside caves to the jungles of Central America, I have done a lot of interesting work in some unique situations. I have 12+ years experience as a filmmaker, where I've learned how to do nearly everything myself, including shooting, editing, motion graphics, writing scripts, and presenting/hosting on camera. I have ridden my bicycle across America (twice), creating videos to promote bicycle travel, and have created a 10-episode web series using nothing but stock media. I shoot a lot of nature stock footage with cinema cameras, and create filmmaking tutorials.
