What's up! I am based in Brooklyn, NY.
I am a DP; but also a Gaffer and Key Grip.
I most recently shot Frogtown, a narrative-documentary hybrid feature that highlights the weird and wonderful residents of a small town in North Florida.
I've worked with director Antonio Méndez Esparza [2018 John Cassavetes Independent Spirit Award] on three documentaries highlighting Florida's Early Childhood Court System, as DP and editor. I love documentary just as much as I love narrative.
I love taking pictures of my friends when they're not looking.
