I am a California native currently living in Europe. I have been freelancing on and off for more than ten years all across the globe. I have been given tremendous freedom to develop campaigns and concepts for my clients, allowing me to flex my creative muscle and develop a wide range of content for a highly fragmented market and viewership. These days most of my work is in social media, which is an ever-evolving and fast paced environment that requires quick turnarounds and constant improvisation and adaptation. My brand Video Nomad encapsulates this ethos by emphasizing the skills most valued by our nomadic ancestors and how they translate into modern media production, all while maintaining poise and composure during stressful productions. The result is a low stress and light hearted approach to video production that will keep my clients coming back for more! Some notable brands I have worked with include Red Bull, BMW, Specialized, L’Oréal, KTM, Nespresso, Lamborghini, Bosch and Fox Suspension.
