About
I’m a cinematographer and video editor focused on creating visually powerful and story-driven content. I’ve worked across TV productions, commercials, and music videos, gaining hands-on experience both as a Director of Photography on smaller projects and as a camera operator on larger productions.
Beyond client work, I develop my own short films, exploring cinematic storytelling with a strong emphasis on mood, composition, and emotion. My style leans toward dramatic, immersive visuals that serve the narrative.
I’m adaptable on set, comfortable working in fast-paced environments, and always looking to grow by collaborating with talented teams and pushing creative boundaries.

🎥 Dynamic Judo Showcase with Cinematic Editing 🎥 For this 4K video project, I focused on crafting a high-energy narrative to highlight the intensity and elegance of judo. As the video editor, I brought the raw footage to life by carefully controlling the pace to create dynamic storytelling that keeps viewers engaged from start to finish. Smooth Transitions: Seamlessly connecting scenes to maintain the flow and rhythm of the action. Realistic Sound Design: Enhancing the impact with authentic audio elements, from the rustle of the gi to the thud of each throw, immersing the audience in the experience. Dynamic Visuals: Balancing slow-motion highlights with fast-paced cuts to emphasize the skill and power of the athletes. This project demonstrates my ability to combine technical expertise with creative storytelling, delivering a polished and professional result that captures the essence of the sport.
