ABOUT ME

A PASSION FOR FILMMAKING | A CALLING FOR THE WILD

My passion for storytelling was born in the outdoors. Before I ever picked up a camera, I spent most of my time exploring new places. I’ve always found inspiration in documentaries, photographs, and magazines that showcased nature in ways I could only hope to experience for myself.

It wasn’t long before I found myself letting a camera guide me on my adventures, pushing me to see the world from a new perspective. While I’ve always enjoyed being outdoors, capturing it on film has only deepened my desire to keep coming back.

I was born in Austin, Texas, and graduated from the University of Texas with a Bachelor of Science in Radio, Television, and Film. During my studies, I focused on how to effectively create, share, and tell engaging stories through visual media, with an emphasis on cinematography and documentary filmmaking.

After graduating, I moved to Los Angeles and began my career as a Production Assistant on NBC’s hit comedy series Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Never did I imagine I would end up working in comedy TV, but the experiences and lessons I gained were invaluable, both personally and professionally.

After four years, I moved to New Mexico, where I had the opportunity to get behind a camera again and reconnect with my true passion for the outdoors. I now live in Springfield, Missouri, where I have been fortunate to produce, direct, edit, and capture content for national outdoor brands, commercials, social media, and digital marketing.

The experiences I’ve had with a camera by my side have been some of the greatest lessons of my life and have shaped who I am today.

I believe visual media has the power to inspire others to chase adventure and continue learning about the world around us, which is why I love what I do.
