I have worked as a cinematographer, editor, and producer in the action sports industry for 16 years. My goal is to create content that is not only visually stimulating, but that also brings out the emotion of the viewer and tells the whole story. I started off my career in the surf industry and over time it has blossomed into creating content for a wide range of acton sports. Mountain Biking, Surfing, Skating, FMX, Wake boarding, Snowboarding, Rally car, and MMA are not only sports I enjoy watching, but have been fortunate enough to have been able to shoot and produce fresh content diving deep into the lives of these professional athletes.

Videography has always been a passion of mine. I have been interested in all aspects of videography since Junior High. I currently have a 4 year degree in the field and constantly expanding my skills to further assist my video work. Some of these skills are music composition, vfx, writing and graphic design. I also enjoy matte painting, programming and audio engineering. My wife is at least assisting on my projects because I love to have multiple insights and love her talents. She's an excellent color grader, writer, photographer and graphic design artist! She has a more realistic approach to her art as mine is more Disney or World of War Craft style.

I'm a documentary/commercial filmmaker. I've been shooting now for over 10 years on everything from low/no budget to big budget productions. I started my own rigging company about 6 years ago, but I enjoy filmmaking more than running a business. Among many projects, building our own electric car has been one that's kept us entertained the last year, and I plan to integrate that into filmmaking projects coming up. I'm always excited for what's coming next and I embrace and learn a lot from every situation. Problem solving is what I do best, it really doesn't matter what type of problem it is. Hope we get to work on a project together soon.
