I used to work for the tabloid newspaper BILD in Germany (Europe's largest newspaper) where I was part of the crime section in Berlin. As a multimedia reporter I covered the latest crimes that happened in the city. In late 2015 I was sent on an assignment to LA where I worked as a news reporter. I decided to stay and freelance after I met my wife. In 2016 I won the RIAS 1st Digital Media Award in Germany for the documentary "Feuerland Detroit" which I shot and edited on my own. Very recently I finished my first feature length documentary "Bangers to the Bible" which is about a former member of the Crips in LA who became a Bishop.

I'm an experienced and passionate storyteller inspired by documentary's ability to play a role in social change by educating, inspiring, and inciting action.

I've been working as a Freelance Documentary Film Editor and Writer on various feature-length and short documentaries over the past 5 years. I have award-winning films in numerous festivals across the world and am currently producing my own short documentary about mental illness.
