I was the kid in high school figuring out old reel to reel machines and projectors in A/V club, and I've carried on that passion for technology and media to my professional career. Early on in my career, most of my experience came from my love for audio and music production. I tracked numerous local bands in the Cincinnati area including Walk the Moon, and Young Heirlooms, both in studio and on location. I've done sound for picture and live music video projects one of which won an Emmy award. I've worked as a field audio engineer for projects ranging from short corporate promotional videos to feature length films. Since those early days of running sound and tracking, I've pivoted to video production and find myself happiest with a camera in my hands on a shoot or traveling. I began polishing my craft at the Cincinnati Museum Center and National Underground Railroad Freedom center for 4 1/2 years as the head of video production and AV for both institutions. In 2016 I took a position in the corporate world as a Multi-media Producer at Paycor to revamp their video output from the ground up. Finally in 2018 I was able to make the move out on my own and launched Axe of All Trades, a full service video production outfit based in Cincinnati Ohio.
Boca Restaurant Group approached me about refreshing their video content and producing a website banner reel for their flagship restaurant Boca. Shot during dining hours and in the kitchen for food and plating style shots.
This video was produced as Paycor's new flagship product video highlighting the entirety of the software suite.
Artworks commissioned Axe of All Trades in 2018 to document various projects happening around the city, this is a quick hype reel used by Artworks at a live event in 2019 and for digital marketing campaigns. Entirely shot and edited by Axe of All Trades.
Paycor commissioned Axe of All Trades to visit a really interesting client in Chicago called Flowers for Dreams to produce a video about their business and ultimately talk about how they align with Paycor's mission and use their product.
This video is a combination of a passion project combining 2 things I love, metal and nature. I reached out to the Fire in the Mountains team and was lucky enough to be asked to come out and film the event in 2019. Entirely shot and edited by Axe of All Trades.
Friends at CRG asked me to comeback and develop a new promo for their 2019 season. Wanted to shoot outside, in the morning, in February, and we lucked out with a beautiful shooting day with minimal lights needed. Produced shot and edited by Axe of All Trades.
