What's up! I am based in Brooklyn, NY, and I shoot a mix of narrative, commercial, and documentary work.
I most recently shot my 2nd narrative feature, a dark comedy titled The Big Game, starring Joel Murray and executive produced by Jim Cummings.
I previously shot Frogtown, a narrative feature film that highlights the weird and wonderful residents of a small town in North Florida.
I've worked with Sony Music on a few commercial spots, most recently for the new WX1000-M5, and also for the 360 Reality Audio launch featuring Steve Jordan.
I've also 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've taken my gear via bush plane to remote areas of Botswana and back, so I'm fully ready for all kinds of travel!
I love taking pictures of my friends when they're not looking, riding my OneWheel, making espresso, and being in the mountains.
