I’m a filmmaker, editor, and producer originally from the Midwest, now working between Los Angeles and wherever a story takes me. I’ve edited a wide range of projects including social media campaigns, branded ads, music videos, documentary work, and high-energy automotive content centered around race car driving and motorsports culture. I’m drawn to editing because I love shaping emotion, rhythm, and atmosphere — finding the pulse of a story and building something that feels alive rather than overly polished or manufactured. My background in cinematography and sound design helps me approach editing from a full storytelling perspective, whether I’m cutting fast-paced action sequences, performance-driven music videos, or more intimate, cinematic pieces. A lot of my style is influenced by film, music, travel, and the small human moments that make visuals feel real. I care deeply about pacing, tone, and creating edits that connect with people emotionally while still feeling modern, dynamic, and visually intentional.
