I have over 20 years of experience crafting film and video for independent artists, organizations (for profit and non-profit), and broadcast television worldwide. I thrive on the process and the challenge from every project, and I set goals to deliver the goods. My passion for filmmaking grows with each project, whether I work solo or with a team. Storytelling, craft, technology, and problem solving are at the apex of every good filmmaker. No matter the size of the project, I bring my best and stay focused on collaboration, quality, and results.
