Based in Seoul, South Korea, for more than a decade, I produce news reportage for several international media including Deutsche Welle, Radio Television Hong Kong, Press TV, ABC Australia, and CNN. I appear on camera as a regional correspondent as well as provide live unscripted news analysis on television and radio to foreign news media. As an ENG camera operator, I work with other foreign correspondents, arranging elements of news packages, shooting video of interviews and events, and editing video reports to time-bound client specifications. I regularly appear on South Korean television and radio programs discussing South Korean news and regional and international affairs. I'm a regular panelist on Arirang TV's "Foreign Correspondents" (100 programs) and for 3 seasons I participated in tvN's "Foreign News Avengers," (30 programs) which included an assignment to cover the 2018 U.S. mid-term elections from Washington D.C.. In 2019 I travelled to Christchurch, New Zealand, for intensive coverage of the Mosque terrorist attacks, including the production of a short documentary. To offer reflection to my work as a journalist, I am an adjunct lecturer at Yonsei University GSIS where I conduct one class per term in International News Analysis and Political Communication. Education Korea University Master’s Degree, International Studies, Peace and Security, 2015. Simon Fraser University Post Baccalaureate Diploma, Political Science, 2006. Bachelor of Arts Degree, English Literature, 2001. I am married to the wonderfully understanding (of a freelance journalist) Kang Eun-jung and we have a beautiful 5-year-old daughter, Audrey.

I am a cinematographer and time-lapse photographer based in South Korea. After graduating from Columbia College Chicago in 2008 with a B.A. in Film and Video, I moved to Seoul. My initial idea was to live abroad for a bit and experience the world before I got settled into my career in New York or Los Angeles; however, Korea pulled me in and I fell in love with it! Next thing I knew, I was making my career here instead of The States. I’ve been working as a freelance cameraman in Korea for over 10 years now. I’ve been fortunate to work on a wide variety of narrative films, documentaries, and corporate videos for numerous international companies and broadcasters. While I am based in Korea, I’ve had the opportunity to go around the world for work also. I’ve filmed projects in South Africa, Europe, North America, and throughout Asia. As a cinematographer, I’ve worked with an assortment of formats - from 35mm & 16mm film, DSLRs & mirrorless cameras, to the latest high end digital cameras.
