ABOUT ME
My Background
In my professional career, I’ve learned that human interaction is key to almost any job. Aesthetics, entertainment, technical knowledge; these elements are of great interest to me, but I’m most fulfilled when collaborating with clients and colleagues to fulfill a vision. Creative endeavors involving photography and filmmaking are what ignite my passion, but above all else I consider myself to be a craftsman, helping to tell stories for those with something to say.
