Discover Top Documentary DPs in Yonkers, New York, USA

I started making videos and teaching myself proper production practices when I began making short films in college. As someone who wrote a lot of stories I eventually realized the best way to get an idea across was through video rather than writing. I've worked on all sorts of projects ranging from short films about college hazing, advertisements for startups, product demo's, and just recently my first wedding video. I put all my effort into the project at hand and always enjoy challenging myself with new kinds of work.

Hey! I'm a New York-based filmmaker and video journalist; I've produced videos for The New Yorker, the NY Times, Vice HBO and other news outlets. I have a varied background that allows me to combine creative storytelling with solid journalism (I'm a graduate of the CUNY J-School, and before that worked in independent film). My personal work tends to be off-beat and character-driven, but I've also covered breaking news both domestically and abroad, and I'm comfortable working as a collaborator or as a one-man-band. I look forward to hearing from you!
