I've been working in New York City in Documentary TV and Film for the last 3 years in Production and Post-Production. I worked on projects like Bobby Kennedy for President and Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes, but in a more logistics oriented role helping to produce shoots and deliver series. I decided to get back into the creative side of filmmaking by shooting and editing more, so I moved to Arizona to shoot my first documentary and picked up a few clients along the way. I shoot, edit, color, and mix all my own work and love trying to shoot in a verite style, if the project allows it.

Lived in Portland, Oregon essentially my whole life. But currently live and love living in New York City. Worked with great companies like Nike, FedEx, Tastemade, GrubHub, Whistle Sports, Popsugar, etc.. But I'd say a majority of my experience has come with making short films and documentaries with my friends, shooting any and everything for fun, plus going to film school at Portland State University didn't hurt. Additionally, I was the Senior Videographer at PSU.tv for 4 years and that was probably my intro to the professional-creative world. I've had 3 internships at various production houses in Portland/Eugene. I worked two seasons on the show Portlandia.
