I am very hands on when it comes to pre-production and production, I try to answer every question before shoots. I work very closely with my co-workers and believe I make everyone around me better at there job and more focused on there responsibilities. When shooting I always try to shoot something more creative than the norm and with my knowledge of cameras, lenses, formats and techniques I always strive to achieve the clients goals as well as my own. 

Throughout the past 5 years I have networked with many people and found a niche operating during some amazing shoots. I have shot for Nissan, Achilles tire, Adidas, Playboy, Hilton, Osram lighting solutions, Adult Swim, Funny or Die, Shotover, Icon aircraft, Olloclip, Penny skateboards, Mighty Healthy clothing and more. All shot on RED digital cinema. 

I was hired in May 2016 to begin building and overseeing video content for The Skateboard Mag / Berrics partnership. During my 5 month tenure I produced my own videos as well as edited and oversaw other videos to create sponsored integrations for online content. All projects were shot on RED digital cinema and edited using the Adobe Suite.

Senior Filmer Editor

Skateboardings biggest budget film “We Are Blood” released August 2015 was recognized for its cinematography. This project took over my life for 2 years, working with the biggest professionals in skateboarding and brainfarm’s arsenal of gear It was my job to make sure all b-roll, cuts and action was covered to create the many scenes in the 90 minute epic. I also shot all the drone aerials while we were shooting on location in Brasil. This project gave me excellent insight and experience in camera technology, big production cinematography and storytelling. 

Camera Operator, Story producer

Fuel TV was known for its action sports shows. I shot segments for “The Weekly Update” “The Daily Habit”, “Blue Carpet” “Skatepark of Tampa” shows and more throughout my college years and beyond. I would mostly cover large events or contests and be in charge of producing enough content for the editor to tell the events story using visuals and sound bytes as well as a highlight based recap of the action going down.
