In My Own Words
I’ve been filming and editing for almost seven years with over 70 corporate videos, a dozen event videos, multiple documentaries, and numerous short films. I'm formally trained Bachelor of Fine Arts (Film Production), worked on numerous feature films and have been in contact with Fox Searchlight Studio (regarding one of my films). My most powerful tool is storytelling and making an idea come to life by utilizing my resourcefulness and work under stress. I have the ability to work great within teams and meet goals on time.
